all the kids want to thank everyone who made this possible i just got back from the meeting that went 45 minutes longer as the kids went crazy for all the coins
some of the more nicer/unusual coins where door prises with the rest i let the kids pick waht they wanted to!!!!!!
they went wild and even the parents could not believe waht was given awaythey wanted some !!!!!!! all the kids were impressed and asked where the coins came from and i told them you guys!!
wow they learned much completed their teast and it took them a long time but they all did outstanding!
they all thanked me and said to thank you all
thi9s went on for 2 hours and they asked lots of questions
and basically the whole meeting was in antipication of me grading the tests as they waited for the coins and drawings all got ezcellent
i mean you can see everyone put their heart into it
the majority of essays where about family members helping them with thier coin interests and how older family members got them started with old coins they had or collected from long ago
the modern coins and proof mint sets post 1950 stuff was the first to go
it amazed me and of course also the 19 vcentury obsolete coinage went fast but the kids loved everything
and as i said above some of the "better" stuff was door prises
everyone was happy as they got to pick one by one their favorites
i hope i dodnot forget anyone

It is highly unlikely that the kids could have had a more enthusiastic or caring teacher. Please give yourself some credit too. You have done a really nice thing for a group of kids.
Here's a warning parable for coin collectors...
sincerely michael
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
