    It would be fantastic if she was also a coin collector.

  • numismanumisma Posts: 3,877 ✭✭✭✭

    From someone whos been there, take lots of photos of your coins. That way you will have a remembrance of your collection.

    Just kidding. Congratulations to both of you! Wishing you both many, many happy years together. And thank you for the nice thread.

    It would be fantastic if she was also a coin collector.

    While she’s not a collector, she knows how much pleasure I get from our wonderful hobby. She also knows I derive pleasure from spending at least an hour or two each evening on the US Coin Forum. Finally, she’s fully understanding when I have to excuse myself to place a bid, or watch live activity, on auctions for coins I want. What more can one ask for?

    Steve

    Can she bankroll it, too?

    Congrats. I am happy for you.

    I am glad she approves of the coin hobby. But I have to wonder what expensive hobby she might have? Jewelry?

    Thanks. Jewelry is not her weakness. It’s donating to worthwhile causes, which is nice!

    While most of the people in the stadium certainly look excited and happy for you guys, the guy behind your fiancee seems rather bored by the whole thing. I wonder if he's been married 5 or 6 times... ;)

    I'm definitely with most of the people in the stadium. Congratulations and Best Wishes for a Long and Happy marriage!!!

    Congratulations on your engagement! Is there a story behind the gold necklaces?

    We’re big fans of Miami Marlins second baseman Jazz Chisholm, who wears some heavy gold chains when he plays. As our seats are in the second row, we chit chat and kid around with him (and others). So these “Gold” chains is good-natured poking fun, as ours are larger than his (gold chains).

    That’s really cool, thanks for sharing the explanation. I’m thinking they get the point across.
