I bought my mother a plastic case, that I filled with a dollar, half-dollar, quarter, dime, nickel and penny from the year of her birth in uncirculated condition.

Quote: Why not just buy them a blender or a new vacuum cleaner if you want them to really hate you. Canadians will be aware of Canadian Tire's brilliant marketing of late.  There are some good ideas here, but if I got my wife a coin, Mother's Day wouldn't end well for me!

I'm going to coin show this Sunday. I wonder if there will be any Mothers there at all.

I was actually thinking that he March of Dimes commemorative is not a bad choice for a coin collecting mother.

I bought my wife the official "William & Kate Royal Wedding £5" coin. She's not necisarilly into numismatics, but loves anything to do with English Monarchs.

 I can't believe you guys haven't convinced your wife into coin collecting. I guess I was lucky. my wife collected coins when I met her. but she's into the history part of collecting, classics with memorable dates and sunken treasure 1600's to 1800's. I'm really not into that stuff, but I guess I can't complain .

We went out to the local flea market today and my son found a 1876 dime love token with "Mama" inscribed on it. It was drilled out so he also got a silver necklace for it. He gave it to her when we got home, and she loved it!! However, me being the P.I.T.A. I am, told her it even had her birth year on it.
