With the first coin, I gave them each a Dansco album to put them in. Worst case scenario, when they turn 18 (as an example) they will have 36 ounces of silver. To make this easier for me, I actually purchased 2 sets, which is where I get the older coins, at &#039;bulk&#039; pricing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
