<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paul M., post: 2358739, member: 73165&quot;]I don&#039;t know if I&#039;d even try explicitly introducing coins to a 4 year old.&nbsp; I was 9 before I got bit by the collecting bug, and I started by filling the blue Whitman folders for coins then in circulation.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of the suggestions in this thread, I like the idea of inexpensive world coins or a recent proof set.&nbsp; I think a birth year proof set would be a fine start, and it would have a good variety of coins (President dollars, Native American dollar, State quarters, etc.)&nbsp; World coins are fun because you can get things like coins with animals (kids love animals).</p><p><br /></p><p>Mostly, I&#039;d just wait for him to show interest in Daddy&#039;s coins.&nbsp; Little boys have a tendency to want to do everything their dads do, so it will probably come somewhat naturally.&nbsp; He may grow out of it, or he might end up a lifelong collector.&nbsp; Who knows? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
