<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Log Potato, post: 2304050, member: 26787&quot;]It&#039;s never too late, you can always ask for next year.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Since this is half thread, I thought I would share a story here.&nbsp; A guy at work approached me a few weeks ago.&nbsp; He said he had heard that I may know a few things about coins.&nbsp; I told him, yes, I know a bit about them.&nbsp; He proceeded to tell me that his son (young teenager) had recently expressed interest in coins.&nbsp; He asked my advice on what he should buy his son for Christmas that was coin related.&nbsp; I suggested a Redbook.</p><p><br /></p><p>Fast forward to this week, I approached this coworker.&nbsp; I handed him a VG10 raw 11-S half and David Lawrence&#039;s book on Barber half dollars.&nbsp; I told him his son must report to me the mintage of that particular coin and the location it was minted at, and that he could keep both as a gift.&nbsp; ( I have a few copies of that book )</p><p><br /></p><p>Hopefully I created a new Barber half collector, but at the very least, hopefully I passed on the hobby to a younger generation.</p><p><br /></p><p>Enjoy your Barbers everyone![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
