<p>[QUOTE="yorkiedad5, post: 687908, member: 19375"]Hello, I just had to let you guys know what happened today. If you dont know me personally, let me tell you something. Me and my wife are foster parents to 2 boys. They came to live with us about 3 weeks ago. when they got here they were very shy and quiet, because it is very hard on them. not knowing what to expect and all. it was the hardest thing even to get them to smile. Well I had to think of something to break the ice, so I started the older one collecting pennies with me. It started off slow but now he is doing great. well today I took him to a coin show here In scranton , Pennsylvania. What he is very into is Canadian pennies. he thinks they are the coolest thing. (that was his first smile when he found one in a roll). well today they had an auction for the kids. They gave them 36.00 in play money to bid on coins that others donated. Here is a picture of all the coins he came home with!!!!!! The smile on his face was priceless. goes to show you that coin collectors do something very special, even if they dont know they are doing it!!!! I want to thank all the collectors out there for doing such a good job. Thanks again---BILL--- you can zoom for a closer look--its worth it[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
