Just Braggin’

Ten years ago I gave my grandson an old worn half slick Morgan. I remember that year I gave a Morgan to all my grandkids, nieces and nephews…… Well the bug hit my grandson and now he is a full blown coin-o-holic and makes his grandad proud so I had to show a little bit of his collection to the community…… So keep planting those seeds. You never know when one will take root.

Beautiful and special!

 

Love it when a plan comes together..........

 

Way to go Randy! I hope that I plant that seed with my kids. I think the first 2 are sprouting nicely.
What a great bunch of gold, too! Jealous!

 

And I didn’t give him gold until today. I brought him a slightly bent gold dollar with an interesting story….. But he has bought all that himself with his minimal earnings.

 

Wow....Randy ...the pusher man....lol... getting a kid hooked on coins.....WTG!

It is such a great sight at a show with kids,and grand kids sharing the hobby. Making memories that no one could ever put a price on.....

 

Smart kid.
PS, I hope you got that dog some milkbones or something ;P

 

From the small acorn grew the great oak tree.

 

Kudos to you, Randy, and I think the boy is lucky to have you as a grandpa!

 

Randy, what an encouraging post to read. Not only are you bonding with a grandchild, but you're providing continuing life for our hobby. I couldn't get my daughters interested in numismatics, but I have hopes for the grandchildren.

 

You're blessed.

I really, really wish I could show my grandparents some of the coins I have now. They did a lot to encourage my interest in the hobby fifty-odd years ago. It was a very long fuse, but it never quite went out.

 

Way to go Randy! Keep him going!!!

 

nice story, and nice bonding. you've earned the right to brag.

 

Fantastic job grandpa! Hehehe I just had to call you that.

 

When grandpa tells good stuff about a grandkid it isn't bragging, it's expected and necessary. Tell us all you like. I think grandkids are special.

 

Here is my 4-year-old great grandson. He thought this little girl needed a little attention and appreciation.

 

Now that is one thoughtful young man!

 

Wow now thats special! What a sweet soul!

 

Their so cute at that age, huh. Great way to get him started on the coin collecting.
