<p>[QUOTE="SilverWilliesCoinsdotcom, post: 2935572, member: 86795"]Love it. Suggest that perhaps the sets be kept by community members teachers, social workers, local libraries, etc. and groups of kids get to share in the building of the set, THEN each additional coin that gets added by awarded to an individual kid and put in the set, and the set be on public display, the coin stated as being on loan to the display, owned by said kid. That way there is a sense of belonging to a group effort, also of individual ownership of the individual coins. After a certain length of time, the sets come off display and the individual coins go to the kids' personal collections. As each coin is donated to building the set, the kid who it is awarded to gets to put it in the Whitman folder or whatever. Just off the top of my head. Any help administratively I can offer, and or Internet skills and or resources, I can host a site for free, I can offer free programming work and web administration, I'm also a great press release writer, AND... I'm retired, so I have the time. Give me a yell if you want to pursue this. Or, just sign me up as a yes. I will also seed the mine right here with a donation of a 2017 American Silver Eagle MS69 First Strike PCGS. Just let me know where to send it when you get this going. You might wanna make it a 501C3 charity, do we have a retired LAWYER in the forum?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
