For some reason, I have to have "her"

I recently commented on a new members journal about being a "newbie". I gave him some friendly advice to try and collect something that inspires you and not to go after everything under the sun, even if it as a good price. I have been doing good lately and have decide to only purchase MS 70 and PF 70 UC, specifically Silver coins. One of my purchases was my 1st gold piece, 2006 W 1/10 $5 Eagle, MS 70 (see pic). Then I did something that goes against what I told him...I purchased a 1883 NC Liberty Nickel, MS 64 for about $25.00. I have every Liberty Nickel made ungraded (except the 1913...anyone got one?? ) and there is something about that coin that I cannot explain...whenever I'm out looking at coins I will look for "V" nickels 1st, I don't know why...I am mesmerized by them and have to have them. After my advice to him, I realized I may be the one going broke 1st!!! Happy Collecting to all!!
