<p>[QUOTE=&quot;1865King, post: 5260907, member: 103207&quot;]You are so right I had a bunch of odd coins of low value.&nbsp; I saw an article in Coin World a few years ago, there was a guy looking for coins and related stuff for boy scouts working on a coin collecting badge.&nbsp; I thought about it for a while and decided to help him out.&nbsp; I had a large amount of odd coins i was going to ship him.&nbsp; However, I didn&#039;t want to send just odd coins so I decided to toss in a lot of modern clad commemorative half dollars I acquired when I purchased a bunch of modern silver commemorative dollars.&nbsp; I don&#039;t remember amount of commemorative clad half dollars I sent but I think it was around 25.&nbsp; These half dollars were still in the capsules from the mint so they were never touched.&nbsp; PROOF AND MINT STATE&nbsp; I think the package I shipped him had to weigh about 15 lbs.&nbsp; The way I looked at was that even if only a few kids get the coin bug it was worth it.&nbsp; As you said give them away to kids it&#039;s the best way to help the hobby.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
