Message:: [QUOTE="PeacePeople, post: 695480, member: 20082"]There are some great coins and some great bullion coins available.  If you want to stick with precious metals there are some awesome products made by the US mint and you can get more information from the internet about them than you could imagine.  I will mention that I don't think you can go wrong buying US mint products, just pick a series and run with it.  It will be a fantastic learning experience for these children and you as well.   As an aside I sent my daughter an album filled with the state quarter series of regular circulated coins, without the Virgin Islands and Northern Marianas for her birthday, 14 years old.  They are all circulated and Denver mint.  I told her what they are and she will need to fill the last 2.  I also have all the full mint sets in silver in a safe here and when she is 18 I will give her a key to a safe deposit box and she will need to visit the bank where I rent the box.  I am not sure if I will pay up front for a 5 or 10 year lease for the box up front, but it will make here visit the place I decide I want her to take at least a mini vacation.  This is all provided she shows the maturity to accept this.  Now I need to decide whether I rent the box in Sandpoint Id or Kalispell Mt.  The good news is I have 4 years to figure that out or find an even more awesome place for her to take a forced vacation.[/QUOTE]
