<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hiddendragon, post: 2619287, member: 25270&quot;]With my first child due on Dec. 28, I wanted to get some kind of numismatic memento, but I didn&#039;t know what was out there and also didn&#039;t know what year he would be born. It turns out he came on his due date, so that left me to see what was available for 2016. Some countries have a special coin for each year, and I was able to find them for Australia, Canada and Great Britain at least. The U.S. doesn&#039;t make any special coins but it does have a special proof gift set. Of course these were all sold out since by the time I was looking for one, the year was over, but for twice the issue price I was able to find one on eBay. I wanted to share this set and the Canadian set that I bought. It&#039;s a neat thing to have to commemorate a child&#039;s birth. Hopefully he&#039;ll care about it some day. Here are some scans of the U.S. set. Another neat thing about this is the quarter included is the Illinois park, and I live in Illinois.
