@cheezyfryes,

I have the following ready to mail tomorrow (Wednesday) morning. Enclosed are two off center cents and a merc. Dime... The Cent in the flip is for Ella to actually hold in her hand and compare it to other Cents (just have to remove the center staple)...

Since you say Ella likes shiny coins, I can take a few of my granddaughters older low grade Indian cents, Liberty & Buffalo nickels and a surprise or two, and polish them up with my dremel and some jewelers rouge and have them really shine... Since these are low value coins, the true value will be when the young children can see their reflection when looking at the coins...

Broken-Coin, this is awesome! Ella is going to love these gifts. I think I'm getting more excited for her birthday than even she is!

I'm sure several people here on CCF just cringed reading that. Thanks again for your generosity, sir.

What is worth more, low grade, low value coins with original surfaces and zero eye appeal, or, some shinny bright coins for children to hold?

My vote is for the children, and seriously, how much do you think one of these uncleaned coins would sell for (if your lucky enough to find a buyer).

I have the card. But, I'm still waiting for everyone that contributed $5.00 to send me their comments.

Well said! I hope to someday return all the kindness my daughter is being shown to another budding numismatist!

@chris - when is your deadline for us sending messages? I am not sure what happened to mine - this is the first I have been using a mobile device for mail so I must have goofed when sending.
