Don't you just love handling some coins without gloves on?
Yes. And many that I no longer own as well.
But I can't remember what day the trash pickup comes until I see the truck in my rearview mirror...
Absolutely. I can close my eyes and visualize every circulation mark on some of my better coins.

I can do that with a few of my coins... and several of my firearms
Nice thing about firearms is that you are supposed to clean them...

Absolutely as each one is unique
I had some coins as a kid that were stolen in 2000 during a move-in, but I swear I would know them today if I saw them.
I knew it would happen.
Yes. It is always fun to think about that one stupid tick that knocks off a few hundred or thousands of dollars on a higher graded piece.
Stick with...top... VG !!
The said truth is I would know the coins and the holders. I have a healthy dose of eidetic memory which can be a curse at times

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
Same here. And.... same here.
I’ve never been able to purge anything in my nogin and therefore sleep escapes me

Can't say that I have.
When I cared about the registry, I used to view images of my coins a lot. So yes, I can visualize them and I would be able to recognize them.

I could probably name 17 or 18 of my first 20, and give good guesses at the rest, and pretty much know where everything is. It helps that there's a memory attached to each one.
I've memorized my collection to the same degree as women generally remember a first date or kiss
