Phone rings :
Coin Dealer answers : " A ______ shop ".
Caller : "Yeah, I dropped my '5- S off for repairs and can't pick it up until tomorrow"
Dealer: "oh... okay ".
Caller: "Okay thanks. "
Click. End of call.
Safe to assume a Five Ess is not the same as the '05 S U.S. coins, in this case.
And probably safe to assume nobody shows up tomorrow to pick up a telephone.
I wondered why the caller hesitated, initially
Must have been the wrong number and he thought he got "a phone shop"

Huh?
Wrong number. A guy called thinking he had a phone shop, I guess. He's supposed to pick up his "5 S" tomorrow. Pretty sure that's the Apple iPhone. I was thinking "huh", too.

Didn't know what a 5-s was as I don't even have a cell yet......don't want one either.
I can relate. I still can't get used to talking to my daughters via Facebook. Feels foreign as a rotary dial.

"If I say something in the woods and my wife isn't there to hear it.....am I still wrong?"

You know you're dealing with coins too long when you're hearing "I dropped my '_ 5 S off for repairs".... and you instantly think " coin doctor", or a Barber coin, or this example on eBay... "

tried to get my 5s to selfie itself but it turned red and started billowing smoke
.
number and when answered say "It is done."...and hang up.
LOL @ ricko ... i almost spit out my drink
On that note, I do have 3 PCGS APPS on my smart phone. Not that they make me smarter. On the contrary I had to ask my daughter how to change the signature so my email responses didn't say "Sent from my iPhone"

If you were a woman I'd marry you.
Nice quarter fastfreddie ...and speaking of wrong numbers....I like to occasionally dial a random
number and when answered say "It is done."...and hang up.
Lol... When I see a telemarketer on the display I pick it up and in a fast whisper I say, "I can't talk I'm still cleaning up the blood it's everywhere!" And hang up.
Huh?

Coin collecting is not a hobby, it's an obsession !

The image was captured by Todd's photo mastery which shows the coin exactly how it would be in hand with a loupe and some light!
Yes, Big Shout Out!!
Some people would not stop talking, no matter how many times I tried to interrupt.
I should have filed for PTCSD for that one alone.
For some reason nobody stays on the line....
