I look at mine 3 to 4 times a week. Sure is fun!
I manage money. I earn money. I save money .
I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.

    I look at some of my coins every other day or so. Most are kept in a safety deposit box. I rotate things from home to the box. Once a month or so, I do look at everything at the bank as I determine what to bring home for extended study.

    You're right! It is fun.

    Most weekends I usually have a coin or two to look over.

    I think the most i've had recently at one time is seven gold "O" coins, six eagles and one half eagle that I posted photos of on this website a few weeks ago.

    Access is a pain.

    Whenever I deploy back to the states for a few months I get the chance to visit my coins if I am good. It's not easy collecting while stationed for six years in the sand box.

    Seriously, as often as I can (Daily) when I am able.

    I have taken pictures "TrueView" of all of mine. There kept in a SDB. If I want to look their just a book shelf and a binder away.

    I view or show them 2 to 3 times a week.

    I look at ... something ... most days. Most of the coins that are worth anything live at the bank and I see them very rarely, but I keep some cheap eye candy at home.

    I don't think I've gone a DAY since I really got into the hobby (sadly, only last month!) again without looking at at least some.

    Not as often as I would like.

    Definitely the photos more often than the coins.

    I always try to look at a few of them whenever I have some extra time. Some of the nicer looking coins always look great and can definitely brighten up your mood once you see them.

    They're widgets. I have a photographic memory. There is no need to look.

    If your SDB is dank, then you need a dessicant in there.image

    I am really liking this new quote button I just found thanks to another post, even though it's been there a while.
    Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

    A lot but some more than others. A common date blast white Morgan in 64 gets old fast [unless its a 93-s or 89-cc or 92-s or 84-s or 95-o] but there is plenty of eye candy to make up for those.

    Look at some type coin daily. Getting way to many and need to thin it out a bit when the price of silver takes off again.
