ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19273 Posts	Posted 10/23/2021 06:20 am In some corners of the world, it's customary to give a coin or two (or other trinket) to a child in recognition of the loss of a baby tooth. There are a number of subtle variations, but generally it involves placing the tooth under a pillow at night, and the next morning a coin or two is found, under said pillow. Has anyone found and/or used interesting/exotic coins in the tooth fairy exchange? Common pocket change, Morgan dollars, road rash quarters, slabbed proofs, other? Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 10/23/2021 06:53 am I have a gold crown that fell off one of my teeth. Could I give that as a present from the Tooth Fairy? Report this Post to the Staff

I think when I was a kid it started at a dime and eventually moved up to a quarter. My 7070 US Type Set My 7100 Lincoln Cent Set (now with updates!) Report this Post to the Staff

cedargrove Valued Member Canada 138 Posts	Posted 10/23/2021 4:49 pm I used to give my kids 1oz silver bullion coins from around the world. I'd tell them that the tooth fairy must have just come from that particular country. Report this Post to the Staff
