<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Moen1305, post: 1055636, member: 2544&quot;]If you want to interest your children in coin collecting,it is all in how you do it.&nbsp; Don&#039;t blame them if you haven&#039;t sparked their interest.&nbsp; They have a hundred things more interesting than coin collecting these days, what did you have, a ball and a stick?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Here is my trick.&nbsp; I have 3 boys, 2 years apart.&nbsp; For Christmas each year, I have bought them proof/mint sets.&nbsp; My oldest has 16 sets, the next oldest has 14 sets, and the youngest has 12 sets.&nbsp; When they turn 18 I am done buying them their annual sets.&nbsp; They will either continue to buy the sets or they won&#039;t.&nbsp; The ones that do will share the coin collection which currently takes a lift truck to move.&nbsp; Albums, rolls, silver/gold commems and bullion, mint sets, proof sets, and the whole thing is multigenerational going back to their great grandfather.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t really care if the one(s) that end up with it sell it or not, just as long as they don&#039;t get ripped off in the process.&nbsp; I hope that they invest in something that brings them wealth.&nbsp; I think that they already have enough knowledge to avoid being ripped off.&nbsp; The fun for me is the collecting, I don&#039;t care what happens after I&#039;m gone.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
