Haven't you learned by now that coins and collecting is exactly like a woman. Your never sure you know what to do with them, but at the same time you are sure you can't live without them. Is it love or addiction? You pay your money and take your chances! Either way, It's a whole lot of fun. Yeah I like that quote Dan.. My othger half would say obbsesive compolsive I wish I was that way on my speeling and typing so atleast you all could understand me

Since addiction relates to physical dependancy , and Love equates to a mental state of mind ,, I guess I'm both !!

Definatly an addict, every spare moment is looking at coins (especially Morgans) I look at 100 Morgans and find "the one" I just have to have. Guess Old Dan is right. I find myself checking my pocket change everyday. I'm new to collecting so maybe in will lessen with time....hopefully it dosen't get worse.[:0]

A better way of putting it might be that I have a deep respect for coins, and feel that they deserve the chance to both educate and provide enjoyment to those that collects them. Some are actually like old friends.

Doubtless addicted.
But I prefer manic.

The only thing that has kept me out of real trouble thus far is that I'm cheap.

Peace

The addiction part is noticible in that I MUST look at every single coin found in my pocket change. No coin escapes.

Have you ever found anything of value in your pocket change?
