[QUOTE="LaCointessa, post: 2763897, member: 87186"]Hi again everyone, I have been thinking about what to get my mother for her birthday. It is always a challenge coming up with a new and different gift idea for my mom. There are very few things she has not tried and she is not easily impressed. I want to give her something that will excite her and offer her a chance to learn something new. Mom loves antiques and art, small things, robins egg blue things and money. She loves the thrill of chance and is extremely lucky. So for her birthday this year I'm organizing a small box which will contain the following: six promising (from what I can see) crusty ancient Roman coins 4 oz ancient coin cleaning preparation system six pair of disposable gloves 2 of those special cleaning pencil-like things (I'll share a pack with her) a brass brush and a nylon brush polishing cloth I like the idea of giving mom a gift that no one else will ever think to give her and one which will excite her when she starts to see what is revealed when the coins are cleaned up. I don't think she ever had anything 2000 years old before. Is there anything else I should put in the box? Thanks![/QUOTE]
