At a standstill with coin purchases lately?

Waiting to get the "bug" again, kinda lost interest the past 6 months/1 year.

Oh but I know it`ll happen tho. image

    <----------Lukewarm for a season, as far as buying, and it's too much of a buyer's market to encourage me to want to sell. image

  • I havent bought a coin for almost a year now. Seems like longer.

    Ill be adding to my collection shortly though, once I find a suitable example of a gold N.O. coin I need for my set.

  • It's been a couple months. Doing a little remodelling in the house so coins are on the back burner for a few more months. image
    Have bought and sold on BST, many references available when asked.

    The three major ANA auctions are next week - I think most collectors are waiting for these sales.

    There are more. When most people take a break from the hobby, they also stop visiting the CU coin forum.

  • bought a house coins seem very unimportant right now.

    My buying has been minimal for the last three years - my mint subscriptions and a few slabbed coins per year is all I can do.

    Never buy much during the summer. Have better things like fishing, backpacking, vactions, etc.

    I will be back into coins when the snow begins to fall
