Please post a Pretty Toned Morgan $1 for Broadstruck Jr.

Well it's official my Son who's 4 3/4 year old just saw his first coin on this board that he's actually commented on as liking.

As normally he's more interested in the cats and dogs that are posted or used as avatars... or asks if all this money can be used at MC Donalds image

So he saw the following coin below and said "Wow Dad that a Very Pretty Penny" image

    And a mighty big penny it is Broadstruck Jr.

    Daddy is going to have to spend more time with you teaching you about the different denominations............can you say "DE-NOM-I-NAT-IONS"? image

    You've already taught your son that a dollar is worth a penny? So if a normal family gives their children a weekly allowance of $25... you'll have to give your son a weekly allowance of $2,500. Have you considered adopting?

    Been working with him as he likes to dump out his piggy bank and separate and group all the different coins.

    What? A properly struck coin (non-error)? It WOULD be a 'star' coin, WITH a GreenBean!!! Is that going to be for his 5th birthday (assuming you can get him to understand it is NOT a "very pretty penny" that can simply be spent? image

    He does have his father's eye for quality, I must say!

    I'll come up with something.

    This penny has a pretty turkey on it.

    Actually, for a 4 3/4 year old, that's pretty good. Now teach him the different words like, nickel, dime, quarter, and dollar.

    Before you know it, he'll be putting your change from your pockets into one of those piggy banks that separate coins into the different denominations.

    Keep up the good work Broadstruck image

    Her's one for BJ. Not the most colorful Morgan. But a very pretty one, IMO. Undergraded at 64, I think.

    He liked the color and as far as the rest I'm sure he'd prefer a SpongeBob Squarepants sticker to CAC! imageimage

    Edited: After seeing AuroraBorealis's above, this looks pale! But this is my favorite toned Morgan from Mark and I hope your little man enjoys it! My grandsons are starting to appreciate my coins too.

    Thanks everyone! image

    I'm going to take him with me to the next local smaller show as I normally spin through these in 15 minutes and that's about his maximum attention span.

    He doesn't like red copper as I showed him some pre civil war type today and it was not his fancy. When I asked why, he said it needs polkadots! image
