    I have a couple small kids too...so I understand the idea of wanting have a common interest and hobbies. I have been making an effort to get both of my sons interested in the things I like.

    That said, why do you want wheat rolls? All you will likely find in such items are common date circulated cents worth a couple cents each at the most. I would strongly advise you to invest in quality over quantity. That way you will have something far nicer to share with your kid and later pass down.

    Why not start with some 1909 VDBs ? First year of issue, historic value, affordable - you can usually get nice ones for $5 or $6 on eBay

    You can get a circulated example for much less than that. Heck, I'm sure a lot of people here have extras they would be willing to sell. It takes time and study to identify some problem coins...I would suggest learning about the coins and how to identify problems before buying them. I was at a point in my life not too long ago where I didn't buy coins for several years because I was in school and had no disposable income. So, I spent that time studying them and learning as much as I could so when I could buy them I would be ready. It was probably the best thing I could have done.

    If you were going to do something with the ANA that money would be better spent taking one of their grading classes. There's a lot more collectors that aren't actual members than are now a days.
