Hi CoinMom! I sent you a PM requesting your address. I have LOTS of extra wheats, bunches of earlier Jeffersons and a fair amount of Roosevelt dimes. How old is your daughter? I will send her some special coins as well. I think this is such a sweet thing you are doing for dad and congrats on his 10 years!!

Quote: I'm positive he has not started collecting again in secret. I can't say for sure why he never did it again can only unfortunately venture to guess that being bottom deep in a liter of whiskey every night till I was in my mid 20s was more of his focus. Now as a decade sober grandpa he tends to just focus on other people's needs "to feel valuable". But with the big move coming for him maybe this gift will get him back into it and give him a hobby whilst he's retired in the middle of no mans land. I'm sorry to read that. In this perspective it's even a nicer initiative and gift than I initially thought. Wishing you all the best in getting this done! ps. Most of what I have left of my family lives 5 hours of traveling away from me. That doesn't stop me from having long-term projects together with them or to keep each other updated on things.

PS The pickle is 5 (She's the only one of the 4 into it really, the 2 older are in HS/COLLEGE so they can't be bothered and the youngest is 3 but he does like to help sort when we have all kinds of mixed change) Quote: I'm sorry to read that.

thank you, hoping to make him happy, my husband says stealing his doing drove him to drink. it didn't of course (having 4 daughters did, lol) In all seriousness I am so grateful to have him be who he is today, and he's such a great grandpa. (and the best daddy a girl could want)
