Coin Addict
Just curious how many of you would consider yourself a "Coin Addict"? I know when I have a few extra bucks after payday I think about my journey to the local coin shop-I enjoy hunting for trophies or missing coins in my collections. I guess being an addict in this hobby isn't as bad as other hobbies (i.e., golf, tennis, beer drinking, bars)...

One thing about it, Gambling ,drinking,chasing women what ever you can go broke.Doesn't matter how much you spend on coins at the end of the day, you always go home with money in your pockets!
Re: Coin Addict
Just thinking of how I am going to convince my wife that I 'need' a 1909 VDB S Penny(MS60 or better in Red or Red/Brown color).
I've used the following lines already:
1. Honest this is my last coin
2. It's an investment
3. Oh, I forgot to tell you that I got another coin
4. I need to treat myself
Back to thinking again...

Re: Coin Addict
When I'm not shopping for coins, or searching rolls, I'm finding better ways to photograph them, identifying my unknown ancients, updating a special coin website, or researching someone else's mystery.
I can't seem to get enough time for all the things I need to do with coins.
Does that make me an addict?
