Hello,

After having several topics locked by a moderator I have learned that I'm so not a coin photographer and I have also learned that I'm not into BU coins for myself but I love giving them as gifts? Does that seem strange? I had to re familiarize myself with the CCF rules and hold my tongue as the moderator meant no harm he was frustrated on one hand and wanting to help on the other.

Anyway, that being said I have a BU Sacagawea coin that I'm not sure what to do with. I considered giving it to a younger cousin or something like that so they could spend it but to me putting a nice BU coin into circulation is unheard of. I wish you could see how beautiful this coin is but that goes nack to what I call "Rich's coin photography fiasco 2010" and that is bad.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Rich

I suggest putting it in a flip and giving it to your kid cousin. Explain why it is in a case (rarity, grade, design, etc)

Could start him off on an addictive adventure :)

Rich,

Donate it to your local coin club, or a special youngster that you know who may be interested. Explain to them why it is special ..... this little gift just might be the start of something good for a new collector.

For what it is worth, I vote that you give the coin to lafaa123. As a new member here, one of the first two people to step forward and provide an answer to one of my questions was lafaa. I think, Snitchard, you would only do well to support and foster lafaa's healthy interest in coin collecting. Ged
