    I'm gonna have to work on his moderns here in a bit. His brothers and sister all have their birth year US mint sets and American Silver Eagles. He will get all of those for 2022 :)

    F.F. Congrats on adding this handsome lad to the family :happy:! He looks like a serious numismatist already :D. When his eyesight & strength improve give him a test by putting a Greek, Roman, Byzantine, & Celtic coin in front of him & see which coin he wants to put in his mouth first, that will be his collecting specialty :p.
