penny4urthoughts Valued Member United States 192 Posts	Posted 06/07/2012 05:46 am I have started a collection of birth year for each of my 3 children, and myself. I have been diagnosed with cancer and this does help pass the time. I started saving circulated coins from the years they were born and its all US coins, maybe a couple of Canadian pennies for each. I am getting together a photo bucket of coins I may trade and it isn't up yet. the years are 1991, 1994, and 1997. my year is 1969... I am afraid its mainly quarters, dimes, nickels and pennies...and a lot of them... they'll probably take their collections to the coinstar if I dont beef it up a bit and make it more of an extravagant collection. My honey always makes sure that I have plenty of coin rolls to dig through while in the treatment room. Other patients have even brought me their pocket change to dig out the years I want. I would like to get some German coins because they are half German... I try to get some game plan on how to present them, I'm thinking a large pickle jar filled to the rim, but if I had some from other countries, I would get blank books or notebooks and catagorize sets... maybe this could be a plan.It seems kinda silly when I think about it, but at least its the thought and effort of it that keeps me going to my treatments. I think I was healtheir before all this...Sorry I am babbling on, Thanks for at least reading! Report this Post to the Staff

Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 06/07/2012 05:57 am I have my Birth Year Set in 2x2 flips, then those are in a Dansco album I put together. It was a blank binder, with vinyl pages that hold six 2x2 flips. So far, I have 123 coins from 64 different countries. Report this Post to the Staff

I'm sure I can get a bunch of stuff from Aus to keep you occupied while you are in treatment. I will be away for the next week or so but when I get back I will be sure to send something over the other-side for you. I'll PM you when I get it together to get your mailing details Report this Post to the Staff

Takes about 5 minutes. Very peaceful. Actually, I have someone close to me who is in serious dificulties, and the study of numismatics in association with your buddies here in the CCF is a great help. Study of birth year coins is an excellent approach. The Royal Australian Mint issues a special presentation Birth Year Baby set of proof and uncirculated coins annually. They are very popular with parents who wish to give their kids a commemoration of their birth, to be kept as a family heirloom. Report this Post to the Staff

No offense Sel but I have spent time in hospital and that would just put me to sleep when at hospital you need cheering up mate This is more like it https://goccf.com/t/120794 Ripper Bobby Report this Post to the Staff

svslav Pillar of the Community United States 2605 Posts	Posted 06/12/2012 10:34 pm Penny, you've got (e)mail. My three kids are pretty much one decade younger than your three kids. They seem to be interested in coins, on and off, kinda "half-donkey". They do come along to coin shows and I give them a couple of bucks each to choose what they like. The only thing I did for them was getting Australian lunar zodiac 1 oz. dollar coins, the year of birth for each. I'll give those for their 16th birthdays, and we see what will happen then.
