<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jimmy-bones, post: 50302, member: 2794&quot;]My son (age 5) got involved last year, when his grandfather gave him a beat up (can&#039;t even read the date) Ike Dollar. Since then, we have been searching Half Dollar rolls and pulling the silver ones for collection. (I doubt this will make us rich). But, he has learned what to look for and gets excited when he finds a Franklin or WL. He reads the dates, and I usually tell him some family member who&#039;s birthyear is in the vicinity of the date...it makes it more interesting to him. But despite all that we have found in our &quot;new collection&quot;, he still brings up the &quot;big coin papa gave me&quot;.!!!....I guess my point is: I try to use coin collecting (not coin investing) as a way to spend quality time with my son, in a hobby I&#039;ve had a passion in for years.&nbsp;&nbsp; ((--Don&#039;t get me wrong, I do have an appreciation for coin collections as investments!, but the investment return I get from my son&#039;s excitement with the hobby is not to seek monetray gains)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
