<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 3585368, member: 84179&quot;]Don&#039;t be surprised/disappointed if your daughters don&#039;t have an interest.&nbsp; When my children were young, I went through all of the foreign coins that I had accumulated and put them in 2x2’s.&nbsp; Most of them were 1900-1980 and catalogued around 25 cents to a few dollars.&nbsp; Fast forward 15+ years.&nbsp; The plan was to give them to my kids as they got older and ignite their interest.&nbsp; Unfortunately, none of my children ever developed an interest.&nbsp; &nbsp; Now I have 6-7 binders overflowing with decent (if common) world coins.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>And it’s not as if the kids are lack focus. One is finishing his MS in Engineering, one has a BS in Biology and is studying to be a Physician’s Asst, and the third is a Soph. engineering student who also plays on the college basketball team.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>BTW:&nbsp; I started with both coins and stamps, but stamps never stuck (bad Dad joke <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie20" alt=":banghead:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />) and by the time I was 9 or 10, the Scott album was stuffed away in a closet, never to reappear.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
