Finally got my hands on the 1968 double die coin that should have been a game‑changer, but apparently I overestimated the detail, and the mint mark still looks like a smudge. I'm irritated that people keep calling me a novice, because when I examine the edge miling I can see patterns no one else notices. Still, the thrill of spotting that tiny flaw keeps me scrolling through endless catalogs, even though it takes longer than expected to find something worth a story. Guess I'll keep chasing the next hidden detail, but it's getting ridiculous how many coins I have to sift through for a single, tiny success. #Numismatics #CoinObsessed

Found a weird 1896 quarter in a flea market bag 🥇, and I was sure it was a mint error because of the extra scar on the mint mark. The shopkeeper laughed, but I couldn't stop looking at the tiny cross that seemed like a hidden symbol. I'm telling my cousin I can spot a counterfeit in seconds, though my dad says I need to learn the history behind each design. Still, the thrill of hunting for that hidden detail keeps me running from one stall to the next, hoping the next coin will tell a new story. Anyone else feel that rush when a coin looks almost perfect but still feels off? #Numismatics #CoinObsessed
