A guy walks into a bar and hears two women speaking in a British accent. He asks, "Are you ladies from England?" One says to him "No, it's Wales, you idiot!" So, then the guy says, "Okay, sorry. So, are you two whales from England?"

I think it would be cheaper to keep her rather than to try for an upgrade.
All worn out, not for me.
A: The year they spend more on their library than their coin collection.
A numismatist is judged more on the content of their library than the content of their cabinet.
Why isn't she in a slab?
Hey guys want to see my newp?
Guess the grade!
I thought I had a MS (marriable spouse) but it’s just a business strike. It’s detail was, ahem, mushy
I like it, but it’s not going in my Box of 20.
Got it cheap on impulse. Might just donate to a young person that shows some interest.
She's golden, but If you shine the light just right you can see the putty.
Artificially toned.
I think she's been whizzed.
Look at the “S” on that beauty!

“Yeah, I’ve got six others just like her, but this one has a better strike.”

“She was kind of plain, so I sent her in for regrading and a new holder.”
(Numismatists will nod in agreement. Spouses will not.)

“She’s been cleaned... it really hurt her value.”
(Sad truth for coins. Horrible thing to say about anyone.)

“She’s been through a lot, but at least she’s still worth something in XF-40.”
(Sympathetic for a coin. Brutal for a relationship.)
Proud follower of Christ!
“She was struck off-center, but I kept her because she’s an error.”
(That’s a badge of honor in coin collecting. Elsewhere... yikes.)

“Sure, she’s not perfect, but that CAC sticker makes all the difference.”
(The green bean saves coins, not marriages.

“Honestly, I’m just holding onto her until the market improves.”

She: Why are you always staring at that thing?
Me: It’s got better curves than you’d think.

Me: It’s just a hobby.
Also me: locks collection in a safe, installs 3 alarms, buys desiccant packs

I don’t care if it’s been around the block, the details are still sharp

Man, the reverse looks way better than the obverse

I’d never trade this one… unless something rarer comes along

I don’t care about ED with that one.
It looked better online.
