    Someone’s gotta go with “The Money Pit”. Or maybe the 1937 film “Don’t Tell the Wife” ?

    Probably on occasion all of us have that "sinking" feeling for the hobby. Usually when prices of coins we own are "tanking".

    Well now... Not a big movie buff, and the OP used my 'go to' title (and a favorite movie).... So I would have to choose 'Three Coins in a Fountain'....Signifies search, both good and bad luck, and wishful thinking.... Cheers, RickO

    “Jurassic Park.” There are many wondrous things to see ( glorious, historic coins) but there are monsters running amok ( counterfeit coins, cleaned coins, predatory sellers).

    Well, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly as referenced in the OP immediately sprung to mind even before I opened the thread...

    So, how about when you just have one more coin left to complete a set, or you come upon a coin that's just beautiful. .. The Holy Grail...

    I would go with the Steve Martin film "Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid" because the entire thing was cobbled together from old clips.

    Sean Reynolds

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    'Enjoy Yourself'
    Know nothing about the movie. Just went to IMDB and typed in what coin collecting means to me and presto it is a 2009 movie

  • coinkatcoinkat Posts: 23,229 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I can think of a few...

    A Day at the Races 1937-Marx Bros. The dialogue between Groucho and Chico about the racing programs

    Coconuts (1929)- selling Florida real estate in the 1920s and selling certain coins....

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    Tombstone
    Edited to say I just like the movie.
    I think "Little Miss Sunshine" will work.

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.
