As I figured, I got 10 out of 11. What nights are the sessions?

My first love is ancients.

Despite many years of looking, I have yet to see even one ancient coin in a cash register!

That's a bit like 'since they have been posting Smokey the Bear signs in New York subways, New York City has not had even one single forest fire!' (Shelley Burman)

Mind you, I was once tempted to put a follis of Maxentius with a Christogram on it, in the church offering plate! I betcha THAT would have caused a stir!

When your ideal job would be a bank teller or cashier just so you can see all the money You might be an Addict

If you have a strategy on where to get your coins You might be an addict

If you spend more time looking at coins than your wife or husband You might be an addict

Umm, I don't know how to say this. I'm so ashamed. I checked my answers 5 times and it comes up the same, I keep scoring 136%. I'm not an addict... I'm a junkie.

Sure it may just be a case of over-grading, but you should know a few things about me.

I had to have an MRI done not long ago and it came back DMPL. They also did a drug test at the same time and the only vein they could find was more than 72% silver.

They had to put me in a special PCGS program when I had a massive DDO overdose. They took away all my Morgan VAMs, Walking Liberty halves and Standing Liberty quarters. They thought it was working, but I got kicked out because I was caught with hundreds or Type III trimes or "Fish Scales" as I always called them, stashed everywhere in my room. They were easy to sneak in and hide because of the size.

Junkie... what a terrible word.

I'm now lost in a world of errors and varieties. I can't think anything but coins... I'm on ebay right now looking for my next fix. If fact, I have to leave now... my supplier mail carrier is backing up his truck in my drive way.

you walk with your head down hoping to see change you might be an Addict.

If you go through every change tray hoping to find a score you might be an Addict.

If you order boxes of coins from the bank to look through you might be an Addict.

If you peak in every register while paying for groceries, gas, etc... you might be an Addict.

If you ask your friends and family for there change just so you can look through it you might be an Addict.

If you get excited when you find a penny only worth about 10 cents you might be an Addict.

If people come up to you asking for knowledge on coins you might be an Addict.

If you take pictures of coins you might be an Addict.



8 reasons why I might be an addict.
