How I know I'm losing my numismatic mind

shirohniichan

I saw a Littleton Coin ad for SBA dollars, and I actually considered putting a set of them together. No, I'm not crazy enough to order them from Littleton. But the very thought of collecting ugly Susan B's now makes me shudder!

Darkhorse

You ARE out of your numismatic mind! How could you even THINK about getting a non-darkside coin?

shirohniichan

And a Susan B. Agony to boot! I hang my head in shame.

I think it's a great idea, Shiro. It will keep you humble. Remember it's just like they say in the acting world "There are no small roles, only small actors." Well, I say "There are no ugly coins, only ugly collectors." And since I have not seen you in person, there is no way you should take that personally.

Not unless you've been talking to gmarguli or tjennings lately.

Shiro,

Ignore the stigma and go for it.

Shiro and Susan sittin' in a tree,
k-i-s-s-i-n-g,
first comes love, next comes marriage,
(well, you get the rest...

Frank Gasparro really failed to capture her beauty on the coin.
Its his fault.

SSSLLLAAAAPPPP! The next thing you know you'll want to put an Ike set together 'cause you think Dwight and Susan would make a nice "couple"...........

Shiroh -- now that you're out of the closet, I'll confess too -- I think the proof SBA's are rather attractive.

DHeath

I won't tell.

BTW - Will we see them in the registry?

UncleJoe

I thought the Susan B. Anthony WAS/IS a darkside coin. (The U.S. sure didn't want it.)

Only if they start a registry for raw coins!

You know what they say, one man's beauty is another man's hideousness.

supercoin

Well, as a darkside collector you've learned to live with the abuse heaped on you regularly by mainstream US collectors, so you've already got the required fortitude -- go for it!
