US Coin Forum or match.com on Saturday night.......

OldIndianNutKase · January 25, 2014 11:50AM

Having been divorced for over 30 years now, I find myself at 67 years old to be very grateful at finding this forum. Although I have been collecting coins for well over 50 years, I have spent my Saturday nights chasing women and more lately, thanks to the internet, trying to find a few gem BU women on match.com. Thirty years ago, the women available were MS65+. Now they are VG at best or mostly .91 details ( Questionable Color / Aletered Surfaces / etc.)

I have recently found that I can acquire very nice PF66+ Indian cents for about the price that it takes just to get to know a .91 woman. Perhaps it might be fun on a Saturday night to post a pic of the best coin that you have recently acquired and the best woman you have dated recently (if single). You can attest to the grade of the coin, and those of us on the forum will rate your woman on the 0-70 scale, with pristine models deserving of proof and cameo designation.

Any players???

Can't play. My lady is a 70 and upgrades every year.

Broadstruck · January 25, 2014 12:21PM

Stick to coins online... As your return rate even if the photographs are majorly juiced will be far less then internet dating!

silverpop · January 25, 2014 12:22PM

not interested in such a game

crypto79 · January 25, 2014 12:22PM

My wife wouldn't take kindly to me posting pictures of my girlfriend on a public forum

VanHalen · January 25, 2014 12:40PM

XF45 with a CAC gold bean.

She ain't as young as she used to be but her heart is gold.

bronco2078 · January 25, 2014 12:45PM

the little ladies name is Stella , she looked great at first but she turned in the holder

Women are not like coins. 30 more years of age removes a lot of the human luster. Learn to accept "crusty."

WTCG · January 25, 2014 12:49PM

If you want to talk about women just remember in the numismatic community every day is Oktoberfest. Remember that someone the numismatic community would grade MS68 would only grade at best MS62 to the rest of the world. Deprivation can cause the deterioration of standards. Don't believe me? Check out your nearest coin show.

Not to sure that would be a good thread for my boys to read. They would find it funny but my wife would be mad and when she gets mad it is MS70++++ to PR1 very quickly.

OldIndianNutKase · January 25, 2014 1:23PM

Gold is always the standard. I'm just a copper guy that is trying to avoid the women that covet gold........

OldIndianNutKase · January 25, 2014 1:25PM

Sooooo, MGLICKER, you spend your Saturday nights on the coin forum and not out on the town with her???????

Maybe you have been married for a very lojg time.

OINK

OldIndianNutKase · January 25, 2014 1:26PM

The best women tone very naturally. Sounds like she is not AT..... LOL

OINK

OldIndianNutKase · January 25, 2014 1:28PM

Derry, you are so right.......if only you substitute very nicely toned for crusty. Crusty is never good with coins.

OldIndianNutKase · January 25, 2014 1:29PM

Maybe we can encourage PCGS to grade collector grade women as well?????

OldIndianNutKase · January 25, 2014 1:33PM

Soooo, lostincoins,

This thread was not targeted at a happily married man. Just make sure you take as many pictures of your wife as you do of your coins. Coin pics don't pay particularily good dividends, relatively speaking.

And just why are youo not having a date night tonight???

OINK

OldIndianNutKase · January 25, 2014 1:37PM

Broadstruck,

I have found all women's photos online are juiced. Same for coins on line. You just have to see them "in hand"..

OINK

MGLICKER · January 25, 2014 1:42PM

OINK may not be the best sigline on a dating site.....

OldIndianNutKase · January 25, 2014 2:01PM

OINK on a dating site really does not make sense, I agree. Nor does my Porsche Turbo-S. The pics of the Porsche never receive a comment, nor does the 30 inch trout that I caught. I am probably considered a bad catch........

I live in my own little world looking at proof indians that are PF66+, and driving very fast (on the track). Probably will never complete the set at that level, but the Porsche and the coins are not subject to terms of engagement.......

OINK

lostincoins · January 25, 2014 2:21PM

Because it is just now 11:30pm my time and my wife is just getting home from work and she started at 8:30am today. Get rid of the Porsche and get the coins as those cars for the most part are played out... Get a 2014 Nissan GTR you would be much happier with that also.

OldIndianNutKase · January 25, 2014 2:38PM

I appreciate you input, John,

Your wife sounds like Gem Proof. The Porsche is a 2005 (996) which is a well "toned" version which was already significantly depreciated for it's toned state when I bought it. I know that I can sell it for much more no....after altering it with bigger turbos, Fabspeed exhaust, intakes, GIAC tune, etc. to get to about 800 HP. Fun part about cars is that you can mess with them. It's a good protective anode for my coin collection. I think your numismatic photgraphy is very nice.

lostincoins · January 25, 2014 2:51PM

I grew up in Az. and started working on cars when I was 12yo. My first car at age 16 was a 1972 Chevelle, that was a fun car. I have been a fan of the Skyline for a long time. I don't know any production car that can match the performance of a GTR at the GTRs price point. The 996 is a nice car but I am sure to get it to 800hp it cost a good sum of money. Check out this link you will like it.

996 vs GTR

Woody Allen once noted that one of the advantages of being bisexual was that it doubled your chances on a Saturday Night. .

Coin Forum or a dating site? Tough call

Figuring the odds.....? ? ?

Online I can't give it away. Here, I stand at least a half-decent chance of getting screwed. . .

OldIndianNutKase · January 25, 2014 3:12PM

Soooo CJ,

Chasing women and coins might also qualify one a bi-sexual???? Thank you. As may be everyone else that has responded to this post.

I think that you are right.....but I didn't know until you brought it to my attention.

Maybe I should have referenced bi-sexuality in the post to get greater participation???

OldIndianNutKase · January 25, 2014 3:28PM

Hi John,

Loved the video. No question that the GTR is the best performance for the money. It's just that it looks way toooo much like a sleeper. I have seen VW's with nitrous that would beat it. But, I could have jacked the Porsche to 1200 HP with even bigger turbos, Ti connecting rods, intercoolers, and still be a fraction of the cost of a Ferrari 458. But the power gets scary. And Paul Walker losing it all with a professional driver in a Carrera GT gives one pause.......

I have thought of selling it to buy some interesting coins at recent auctions. I could have picked up a 1895 PF morgan and a 1864-L PF indian with the proceeds and my father would be smiling from heaven. But I can play with the Porsche engine without commmiting a sacriledge. Cars or coins is like fast or forever.......

I think we need both.

Women who are on those sites are there for a reason ... you're better off with us.

OldIndianNutKase · January 25, 2014 3:59PM

Even though you are justlooking,

I would be happy to buy dinner if you are ever in Colorado.......just because I know the conversation would be more interesting and one that I just might understand......

Everything's going to be all right.

A Saturday night used to be Match.com and spending money on Ebay. Match led to marriage, and the end of my spending money on Ebay. So now, it is message boards to look/learn instead of buying.

With only ten posts, it looks like that has been reeled in as well.

Funny and possibly true!
After all, one forum member has the Fonz as his avatar!,

Yes, but 2 times zero is still zero.

Good one Ambro,

Her name must be MS 70?????

This is one of the strangest threads I have labored through on this forum.... Cheers, RickO

BAJJERFAN · January 27, 2014 1:11AM

Why? In either case one is likely to come across something well circulated.

US Coin Forum or match.com on Saturday night.......
