As I have said I have a 12 year old niece "Sharlee" who is becoming quite the little Numismatist. But she is also a bit of a thief. She visited this weekend and after looking at our coins together I told her to clean up and later I discovered these 5 coins were now in her coin box. When I confronted her she replied. "well you said you only paid $25.00 for those and I figured a visit from me is worth $25.00 is it not. Game over

In bad taste or not, that was funny right there.

Temptation can be strong when you are young. I would be fair but very firm in that if it ever happens again(and let her know you will be checking from now on and follow through with it) you won't be her coin buddy anymore and you'll inform her mom and dad. if she loves coins so much she is willing to steal them she has a lot of potential as a future coin collector.

bmanofnbc, well said.

Well I guess I should point out that last summer when I was going through chemo Sharlee offered to spend the whole summer with us to take care of me. Of course I declined. But she has always been a great kid and we are very close. She knows there is nothing I wouldn't do for her including give her any coins I have.

This is something that you will share with her for a lifetime. I have strong memories of going through coins with my father as a child and I believe my son will have strong memories after I am gone. You have a great "Remember when you..." story for Sharlee.

12 years old is old enough to know what's right from wrong. I'd sure keep her away from my collection!

I have a 2yo granddaughter that just loves to watch me mess with my coins. She is real partial to the silver dollars. Sounds so funny when she says it. She is most definetly up for a grab and run when she sees them. Kids you gotta love em.

Women get half? You guys get to keep half your paycheck? My wife gives me a small allowance every 2 weeks. One time it's for me. The next time it's to buy her something nice.
