I've been giving my Grandkids (four and two Greatgrand son's) birthyear Silver Eagles. Couldn't find any silver dollars for 79 and 80 had to give my daughter in-law and son Morgans. How about a dated 1 oz silver bar with their names engraved? Another option is a Maundy Set (if you don't mind looking outside the US). |

GLB49 - You're confusing with your terms.
Gem is a quality or grade of a coin, not the packaging
You realize when you know how to think, it empowers you far beyond those who know only what to think.

What a beautiful Ike dollar. Right around the time the Mint perfected the proof minting process and Deep Cameo strikes became the norm. |
