She said she's sick of hearing about my coins. Is there a cure? ;)

    I don’t believe so. Let’s just hope she doesn’t try to make you sell them all!

    Don't worry. My wife has had this for quite some time. It can appear to go dormant and then reappear. you just have to find ways to live with it and make it work. :#

    Just keep washing your hands. You will not catch it from her.

    Very common disease, treatment varies but there are few cures.

    Had she been in close contact with any of these?

    :p

    There is a treatment, though it may only last a short term. Provide a nice dinner out
    with fine wine and flowers to follow. I find this helps though she can become addictive.
    Then you're in big trouble.

    Tell her what they are worth and that you are leaving them to her in your will.

    1. Sell a few of your coins.
    2. Bring home stacks of hundos
    3. Impress wife highly with said hundos
    4. While she is staring at hundos...you can talk coins all you want.

    That doesn't sound like fun.......That's like standing on the sidelines, when the coach won't let you play!! :D

    If she's not careful, she could catch the "bug" that bit us. That would cure her of the sickness she has now. Lol :)

    My understanding is that the vaccine is to give her an injection of an equivalent amount of money for her to spend as she sees fit. However, it is known that as in the case of all vaccines sometimes (rarely) this doesn't work, and sometimes OTOH she gets a full blown case of the virus, e.g. she'll want more money than you.

    Very nice loupe ThreeCentSilverFL! I have one as well, I've had it for quite a few years now. It works great as a loupe but I don't ever use mine as I don't want to wear it out from handling it. Its just another item that my wife and daughter will be selling "in a few years" after I pass on!

    If you thought collecting coins were expensive, you should see what my collection of ex-wives costs.

    lol That's why I stopped at only 1 ex, KindaNewish! That ONE cost me plenty to never want to have another divorce with my current wife no matter how tuff times might get! But I have a great wife now and have for the past 26 years!

    I caught the coinavirus when I was about 8 or 9 when my grandmother “ticK” gave me an Indian head penny that she found out in a field where and old school house used to be. Now many decades later despite all attempts at eradication I still have it. So beware of touching old coins if you want to stay away from this virus,

    I have a "light" case on a regular basis. Seems to last about a week and then I spend a few "coins" and get another case.

    I just read there was a survey of US residents...38% of them said they stopped drinking Corona Beer. Just how stupid are some?
