Bad, bad Shep! How DARE you try to promote this hobby!

What a grand image that was: young girls paging through filled pages of world coins in 2x2's in binders.

Fairly rare in our world I believe. Absolutely inspirational!

You must have a unique connection to your grand daughters-congratulations! We want to know more- what are their names and what are their favorites? I look forward to shipping them several coins for their collections.

Thanks! Yes, we have a very good connection - they are great little (quickly getting bigger) girls. I love it when they come over and ask if they can "do coins" the youngest is Jesse and the older is Jourdan. Jesse seems to like all of the countries- she insists on writing all of the info on the 2x2 by herself, Jourdan always asks if I have any new Mexican coins for her.
There is a coin show this weekend here in Spokane and I will pick up some more for them.

A coin show in Spokane? I know of the one in Couer d'Alene in March. Wow you'll have to keep me posted of shows in Spokane.

Shep, I'd love to send Jourdan some of my Mexican extras if you PM me with your address.

Shep, these photos are the best post I've seen in a while. I highly recommend this thread for DPOTD.


It's just wonderful.

Roman and Dimitri - Thank you for the good words - I almost didn't post this because I was thinking it might just be too much off topic - then I remembered that this is the World Coin forum and not like that other forum
Roman - I will PM.

Thanks again!!

Great stuff. I hope if I am one day lucky enough to have kids they might be interested in collecting coins.

Thanks for the pics.

I think my 7-year old daughter would spend more time with coins if she had someone her same age to collect with. She went with me to the Long Beach show last weekend and loved the treasure hunt, but she doesn't spend much time with the coin folders once she's plugged holes with her new finds.

Once-removed daughters of coin,
historical images in reality joined.
Hopefully they would recognize
a search rewarded with such prize.

Spend the hours,
superior to TV;
reward the effort
to an appropriate degree.

Discover coins
that are history related,
with nice condition,
ownership elated.

Shep... that is just too cool. Great pictures, great thread. Thanks for that.
