    My family are all geeks and they don't collect coins.

    Break them in with bullion, most here have some. Gold tends to be an attention grabber, then ease them into collecting.

    All of my children know DAD has coins, and they are worth money, and 1 of them has taken the time to at least bookmark this site and PCGS to get a ballpark idea on value should a jet engine fall on me.

    That being said, none would EVER call DAD geek or nerd, as DAD was a paratrooper and Ranger, and fortunately, my kids were not born then, so they only have seen some pictures of a very different DAD from the one who raised them. It tends to limit the Dweeb factor issue. .
