Hi everyone, I thought I'd share this 1911 birth year set that I had put together for my grandfather back in 1978 (He passed the following year) Please excuse the quality of the picture as I took it with my old IPad 2nd generation tablet. I would take the coins out but the frame and the coin holder are rather fragile and I don't want to have it break or tear. All of the coins are 1911 and heavily circulated but to me it is priceless!

That is a wonderful idea Tootallious! I would like to do that for my kids. I'm going to look on-line and see if I can find something similar. Thanks for sharing!  !

That is a very nice set you've put together and a wonderful keepsake in memory of your grandfather!  And the nickel, quarter, and half can count for 1911 too! To clarify, are the quarter and half from Philly?

Quote: To clarify, are the quarter and half from Philly? The quarter yes. The half is from San Fransisco. While we're at it. The dime is from Denver, the cent is from Philadelphia and the V nickel I'm assuming is Philidelphia as well.
