<p>[QUOTE="Seattlite86, post: 2152497, member: 59737"]In the military, when you commission as an officer, it is tradition to hand a silver dollar to the first person who salutes you. I am certain, if you dig enough, you'll find that there might be a similar tradition for schools and justify your coin interests. Here are my thoughts after discussing this with my wife: the ASE would be best if it were the year they graduate. Having said that, if they're not into coins, they might not appreciate it as much and look for an opportunity to spend/sell it. You might try getting a 1 oz bar (or larger, depending on your pocket size) and having their names/graduation year engraved. That could become a keepsake that they could proudly display on a shelf. Best I could do. I love coins and whenever I have kids, they will get an ASE (or whatever we're using then) with their graduation year on it. Whatever they do with it is up to them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
