The 7-Year Coin Itch

Am I the only who, after owning any coin for while, no mater how good or bad it is, starts to find previously unseen flaws and just generally gets tired of it?

I've got stuff that I thought was fabulous when I first bought it and now it leaves me cold.

    "Familiarity often breeds contempt". A number of us have the same problem , at least with

  • Tastes change as your collection progresses and the thrill of that neat coin wears off and years later flaws start to come out. It is all part of collecting and helps when you decide to sell - makes it easier. Then another coin comes along and you love it.
