...when you're collecting money from co-workers for lunch and they apologize for only having coins and you genuinely mean it when you say, "no problem."

When you are at an auction and see a coin (key date Walker to be specific) that you don't even collect (yet) going for a song, you decide that you can live on roman noodles for a few weeks and you buy it. Quote:

FTFY My coffee table used to bear the brunt of my mess, after getting tired of cleaning it off over and over again I put a couple t.v. type trays on it, and keep most of coins on them then it is as simple as moving the trays to my desk when I am forced to clean... When you are upset that the price of a can of soda in the machine at work dropped from 55 cents to 50 because you liked getting all the nickels to look through... (true story) |

When you wake up with pennies stuck to your skin because, once again, you fell asleep while you were searching rolls.
When the teller looks up at you and says "oh, no" under her breath when you walk in with the bag of coins.
When your children arn't allowed to play the arcade games at chuck-e-cheese until you've checked the tokens for dates you need.
When your wife thinks you are crazy because you are laughing hysterically at Montel Williams selling the new colorized Barack Obama coins.
When you don't understand why she doesn't get it.
When you walk by a fountian, with a longing in your eye, you stare at all those shiny coins reflecting under the water.
When mall security has asked you to get out of the fountian, put your shoes back on, and leave the mall.

When you spend the better part of a three hour drive with your boss to an important sales engineering meeting going through his massive change collection... |

When you ask your cab fares can you pay me in change please I'm all out.
Hoping they don't hear the $30 you just got from the previous passengers jingle in your coat pocket

wheezydog: "When you pose as a Salvation Army bell ringer on the sidewalk outside of the Mall." I've been putting new Martin Van Buren Dollars in their kettles. Today, a bell ringer asked me all excitedly "Was that a gold coin?!" I said, "No, that's a new Presidential dollar. I get them from the (Denver) Mint." (I pull out another one to show him). He said "That's sure shiny gold looking when it's brand new like that!" I said "I didn't mean to get you all excited like that! I sure wish I could be putting real gold coins in your kettle!"  I put the one I was showing him in his kettle, too! That was a lot more fun than putting a $1 note or two in his kettle.... Edited by DNA

When you think about quitting your $60,000 a year office job so you can go be a bank teller for $10 an hour.
