<p>[QUOTE="TheMont, post: 2621679, member: 80121"]I guess I'm unusual, but as a long time collector I didn't stop in 1965. I've kept my Lincoln cent, Jefferson Nickel, and Roosevelt Dime collection up to date. Each year I buy two Mint Sets from the Mint, one I leave alone and put it with past years, the other I break open to update my albums. I went ahead with the Presidential, Native American, State Quarter, and America the Beautiful, because they were in the Mint Set also.</p><p><br /></p><p>As I've mentioned, I have my grandson interested in collecting and he likes to add to the current coins set, they're available in change and affordable for him. So collecting the "classics" would not make sense to him, he's never seen them in circulation and they cost a lot to buy. As he gets older, and starts to make a decent salary, I'm sure he'll progress to the older series. He'll also inherit my collection, so he'll have a good start.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
