Stujoe,

What I like are the history and lore of coins. When I was Director of Education at the ANA, I produced a daily 2 1/2 mintue radio show for NPR on the history and lore of money. It was on 500+ radio stations and was called "Money Talks." It was a hoot, besides winning a number of awards. Ever since I got into the coin grading side of the hobby I have strongly felt that there might be the perception of impropriety if I bought or sold coins, so I sold off every one of my coins and no longer buy them. My wife and daughter and gladly jumped in and spent all the moeny--and more--that I used to spend on coins!!!

Don't let the same thing happen to you!!!!!

That would really be the pits if I couldn't collect coins anymore. I don't mean this in a bad way. I guess I just don't know how you do it. You still get to see coins though right? It wouldn't be the same but I guess it would be something.
