<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jeepfreak81, post: 24864601, member: 93888&quot;][USER=94733]@Mountain Man[/USER] - what an incredible missed opportunity for the Boy/Girl Scouts.&nbsp; What&#039;s even more disheartening is that there seems to be waning interest in younger generations (or at least the people responsible for sparking interest within them).&nbsp; I&#039;m lucky in that my youngest has taken an interest and even decided he would like to collect coins with various cats on them.&nbsp; He&#039;s got a bobcat, a puma, and a couple of lions already.&nbsp; My daughter isn&#039;t super into the idea of collecting, she&#039;s 14, but she does take some interest in looking at the various world coins I currently have (largely thanks to you).&nbsp; I&#039;d hate to see Coin Collecting go the way Stamp Collecting has, I suppose that&#039;s not likely but there does seem to be a lack of public interest.&nbsp; Even at 42 I feel like I&#039;m already the elder generation talking about things we did in the prehistoric era <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie85" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie93" alt=":troll:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>As for your collection - you&#039;ve kindly sent me coins already and I would say others should have first shot, but aside from working on my birth year set I&#039;m a large fan of Egypt and the mythology and history.&nbsp; If you need somewhere to send coins of that nature - I&#039;d give them a good home (also happy to pay for postage/handling)</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s a pretty cool idea, although geocaches are often subjected to alot of moisture.&nbsp; I have a half dozen or so and as well as I waterproofed them I&#039;ve had to hike out and replace them from time to time.&nbsp; Also sounds like Mountain man would need to appoint someone to place them for him.&nbsp; Does give me some ideas though,&nbsp; I haven&#039;t done much geocaching for a few years.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
