My 2yr old Future YN =)

I thought this was cute, he is always wanting to sit on my lap and look at coins. Today he wanted to use the loupe. This is too funny. He is looking at my 1916 D Dime. I'd say he has good taste in coins! =)

HEHE, very cute indeed. When is he going to start his own collection? :smile

 

He already has a proof set silver and clad from his birth year 2005 and now he has taken to my lincoln bucket and he found a nice 1955 D Lincoln in AU that we both put in the 2x2 together and wanted to use the stapler. Then he scribbled on the front bunch of swilrly marks. He was writing on it like I do to the other coins. I put the date on the back of the coin so he could see it in 20 years. I think it will be neat for him down the road.

 

That is great , I am sure he will cherish that and the memories when he is older.

 

That is awesome! A lucky child to be holding a 1916-D!

 

That '05 silver proof set is probebly going to be worth a fortune one day.

 

Cool - sounds like you all have fun.

 

It is obvious that he is already smarter than many people I know espeically with his choice of coins.

 

A kid that old holding a 1916-D Merc has my ENVY, ANGST and any other nasty things I can think of!!!!!!!!

Just kidding, of course, best of luck!!!!

 

Ultra cool.

 

Wow, it's great that you are getting your son into numismatics. :thumb: Keep it up. :thumb:

Nice,, I wish my boy could do that. Teach him now, so he will know latter.

 

thats awesome, my kids are getting the bug too, lat night we sorted through about 1500 wheaties, just pulling out teens through thirties, my son can't read the dates yet, but he can stack groups of ten for his sister and I to look at

 

Thanks, my other 2 are not as interested as he is but my son who is 13 has quite a bit of a nice collection some from his grandfather who passed and most from me.

 

Its so funny because he has watched me do coins since he was born, I used to sit him in his little car seat rocker thing and rock him with my foot while surfing cointalk and ebay. Last year my wife gave him one of my coins and my loupe and said What does daddy do and he would put that darn loupe to his eye. I started laughing so hard I almost couldn't stop.

 

Great story! Thanks for sharing.

My YN doesn't seem to be quite so Y after that, though!

 

That is really cool, I wish my dad would have got me into it when I was young. It's funny but I got my dad into coins. Sure I probably wouldn't be caught dead around coins when I was in my teens but I think that they will always come back to it when they are in their early 20's, because then they can see different aspects of the hobby. Now I can talk with my dad about coins for hours and we enjoy it so much.
