    You are correct..it killed me to pay $185 for these coins knowing I could have put that toward another note. This is one of those one time buys as a childhood memory for AJ.
    Growing up and at AJ current age of 7 I was abandoned by my Father and swore that if I ever had a child that I would standby him through he** and high water if it need be.

    This coin set is for him and he loves those Robots...may he have fond memories of his Dad when I am dead and gone..

    He is also the recipient of the Currency collection..one day folks will know of him for my collection..I am trying to teach him as we go along.

    Regards,

    I know I would have wanted these coins when I was younger based on how they look when I was into the Transformers had these come out at the time.

    You are doing a fantastic thing for your son and of course the currency will knock him out when he realizes some day just what you have assembled and given to him.

    My own grandmother loved indulging my numismatic interests and nurtured my earliest coin purchases helping me assemble a nice modern coin collection. Every holiday, birthday, special celebration, she gave me some commemorative, Proof set, Mint set, bullion piece, or collectible coin as I grew up. She often gave me some special old coin when I'd spend the day with her or help out around her house. She took me to the coin shops many times to pick things out and see what I liked. Most all of these coins are common to modern US coin collectors but were instrumental in how they kept me focused on numismatics and even got me into physical bullion investing while still a young teen. I benefited in many ways from coins and bullion, but above all they are a symbol and a personal legacy that continues to inspire me and remind me of her dedication and prescience in my life. :)

    Nice buy!! You should be happy knowing that these coins are climbing in value.
    Just wait until Transformers 3 hits - im sure they'll go up even more :)

    On a side note - anyone know if there will be more in the series? Or are the Optimus and Megatron the only ones that will be released?
    Id like to think that they'll be planning to bring out another two to coincide with the T3 release....?

    Out of my entire coin collection, these ones always get the most comments. :D
