[QUOTE="bobbeth87, post: 657239, member: 18369"]Wow, thanks guys. Re the albums....yes. I would love to give those out and I'll take your extras! I have only one wide AM (1998) that I found and was going to show that to them, but since it is my only one, I'm gonna keep it. I was planning on putting out a $10 bill and have them throw it away in the trash can as an object lesson.

I will PM jmon about the trifolds... Any more ideas are welcome. I'm going to show them star notes as well. And, I'll show the the potential designs for the Boy Scout Commemorative for next year. I'll have two scout meetings (2 hours) to talk with them about coin collecting (we'll have to cover the requirements of the badge in that time as well). I'll post a full report when I'm done.
