Setting the grand daughter loose!!!

On Saturday, there is a nice sized coin show in Lancaster, PA. My grand daughter Sara and I will be attending.

Sara has shown a great interest in coin collecting! She takes all of my old Coin World issues home to read.

Therefore, she will be set loose on the bourse floor by herself, with $50 cash. She will be given a list of what to look for as well as a fair price to pay, as well as detailed pics of nice Cameo examples of coins she may find.

I will post pics of her finds either Saturday, or Sunday at the latest. I personally believe this girl will put some of us to shame. We'll see!..

How old is she ?

I bet she is going to have a blast !!
You should video or take pics of her as she ponders her next treasure.

i hope she gives the "junk boxes" a look. You can come home with a BUNDLE of neat old treasures from
some of those boxes.

Sara is 14 years old. She will do good. Anything that she finds worth slabbing will be slabbed for her also.....Ken

Should be fun to see what she finds.

JrGMan2004 · March 31, 2004 8:19AM

Can't wait to see what she buys

Just curious... did you put Sample Slabs on the "No-No" list ??

ksteelheader · March 31, 2004 8:25AM

The only thing on her list is Proof and Special Mint Sets 1964/1972. That should keep her busy and also create a good challenge!!!

With what some of them have been bringing, why would he want to do that?

I just had a brainstorm........for the show organizers........give all the kiddies raffle tickets and let them distribute these to their favorite dealers as they may.....collect 'em all at the end of show and have a drawing for the "kid's favorite dealer".....give the "favorite dealer" a free table at the next show or some other incentive.......
