Happy Valentine's Day to all the Dateless Coin Collectors...

Broadstruck · February 14, 2018 4:30PM

So if your sitting at home tonight trying to raise a date on a nickel with acid post something that's Valentine's Day worthy

German struck by Friedrich August I. (1694-1733) in silver 22mm diameter and translates to Obverse "If you are not faithful to me" Reverse "Be free".

Pictorial wise Obverse "cupid (love) pooping on a heart with a very polite "screw you" Reverse.

Just because you're "Dateless" certainly doesn't make you "Worthless". It just means the right person hasn't cherrypicked you yet.

Not mine by the way.

I started thinking today,for the first time, that this could be a tough Holiday for a lot of people.
I do some volunteer work locally. Today I was in an office that is occupied by all women. Probably about 20 of them. Two of them received flowers today at work. So, of course, that means about 18 of them did not. Out of those 18, I'm sure some have significant others that will take care of them outside of their work. Most of them however, don't. It just made me feel a little bad.

I'm not sure if this is dateless since I only have an image of one side. But this may be something easier to figure out than some of us dateless people's relationships.

Don’t feel too bad, some may prefer their circumstances. So it might just be by choice and I’ve always thought every holiday us hard for someone.

Figured that out one thanksgiving when we were traveling between parents houses when my wife and I were still dating. It was a snowy thanksgiving evening and we drove past a subway sandwich shop and there was one person sitting in the corner by themselves eating a sandwich, that made me very sad that day.

OP coin throws a whole new perspective on our recent discussion of small or large eagles.

Somehow the screwing ducks might be appropriate for a modern issue. Clad of course.

Kkathyl · February 15, 2018 8:39AM

These claim to be dateless but as the night turned to day I seen a few slipping out the door with a number or two.

Kkathyl · February 15, 2018 8:44AM

These all had dates

Some prefer to be dateless. For those who don't, holidays are a great time to meet others w/o a partner who don't chose to shut themselves up at home alone.

July 4 has been the best for me! Just about any single person you choose to ask will accept an innocent "date" to watch the fireworks later that day. The rest is up to you.

BuffaloIronTail · February 15, 2018 10:14AM

The problem with dateless coins is you can't dance with those dates.

The token and photo that jedm posted are mine from when I did a thread and we cracked the code.

As I recall it translated to "All That Glitters Is Not Gold"
