It's hard to argue with the wife and daughter (across the table) at the same time.

Friends,

Well Friday night started out great with a pleasant meal at the Outback. My son sitting next to me, wife and daughter across the table. After the meal we started talking about my dauters college next year and a vehicle and out of right field from across the table "UP CAME THE COINS".

I have split the coins up if something were to happen to me. My son is to get the Commemoratives, daughter will get the Silver Eagles and my wife will get all the rest. Well the two ladies on the opposite side of the table started explaining why I should sell the Silver Eagle sets while I was defending them (the sets). I explained that there was atleast 10 more years to add in the future and the sets would be worth alot more later on. I don't believe they heard a word I said.

I looked at my son and asked if he wanted me to sell his too. He smiled and said "heck no just keep adding to the sets".

I then said to the other side of the table "It's just like a woman to want what is coming to them before it is due". Then replied that I would see what I can do If that is what you want and that the conversation was finished.

So I guess the Silver Eagles will get sold and (My Son and I) will continue collecting the Commemorative sets. Good I don't need to get those 25th Aniv coins afterall.

HAPPY COIN COLLECTING
