<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 947983, member: 21705&quot;]As a father of five, I suggest that you use the opportunity to combine learning of numbers and coin collecting as a joint hobby. I started at about 7 so you don&#039;t have long to go. Teach him where to look on coins and go through change. Pick up an abum for cents and nickels for him and quarters, halves and dollars for you. Maybe pick up a redbook to show him how to read about coins he doesn&#039;t see everyday.</p><p><br /></p><p>Tell him about your grandmother and how she collected coins too. When he is getting into this, tell him his grandmother has left him some coins for when he is an adult, but don&#039;t give him a date or year. </p><p><br /></p><p>Then you can present them when appropriate and he&#039;s not likely to blow the inheritance on something trivial like a car or girl. From the sound of it, I wouldn&#039;t plan on paying for his college with it. It will have far more value as a legacy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
