would you sneak into the local unoccupied coin store and swipe a few coins for your collection before you succumbed?

    No. Just my luck and the coin shop owner and I'd be the last ones living and I'd just have to sheepishly give them back.

    no, i'd sneak into braddick's collection and hide one MS70 modern to his PO type set and then when were discovered eons into the future there would be a real mystery to sort out!!image

    Couldn't do that.

    Maybe instead I'd pick out a few nice coins and say real loud, "Hey, you'll take 10% back of bid for these, right? I'll just write up the invoice and my credit card information and leave it here on the counter. You can run it through at your convenience." image

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    If that really happened then I could take a 1804 silver dollar and scrub/whiz it clean!

    Who would care at that point?

    But the Ben & Jerry's Ice cream combined with a Vegas trip sounds good too.

    No, I wouldn't steal, but I would sit out on my porch with a tall glass of iced tea and think happy thoughts, anxiously awaiting the aliens to bring me Elvis and my 33 Saints and take me off the planet before the meteor hits!

    Its funny you should bring this up, Truthteller. When I was reading Stephen King's The Stand, where the survivors were travelling across the country and passing through deserted towns, I was imagining what I would do if I were one of those people. I'd hit every deserted coin shop in every deserted town I passed through! I'd have trouble finding a truck big enough to haul all the coins and still be able to manuever through the quagmire of stalled cars and whatnot. image

    So a catholic, a protestant and a jew were at the funeral of a mutual friend.

    The catholic stands up and says "As a token of my love and admiration for of our dear departed friend, I'm going to put this $100 bill in the coffin to be buried with him."

    The jew stands up and says "As a token of my respect and high esteem for the dear departed, I'm going to put this $100 bill in the coffin to be buried with him."

    The protestant stands up and says "As a token of my affection and high regard for the dear departed, I'm going to put this check for $300 in the coffin to be buried with him and take out these 2 $100 bills in change."
