<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 337360, member: 4552&quot;]Not sure of the age group but I would strongly suggest not to get to borring with excessive details. I&#039;ve taught Jr. College and even at that age, kids get bored easily. Excessive statistics are the best way to make them sleepy and loose interest. </p><p>My suggestions are to first start by telling them how long that coin has been being produced by our country. Then you might want to mention the different&nbsp; places they are made. You could simply point out some of the features on the coin such as the location of the date, Mint mark and why on some no Mint mark, the coins size compared to a Dime, Nickel, etc. Mention the 100th anniversary coming up for that coin. Why they call the older ones Wheat Cents, What the building on the back is, did they all have the same writting on them and naturally why some are heavier than others. </p><p>If you start describing the metalurical contents, differences in grades, you may well have to wake them up after your done.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
