The humorous thing is the first thing my kids did when I gave them their Morgan New Orleans minted silver dollars (in perfect uncirculated condition, btw) which were issued 100 years prior to their year of birth was to ask me to put their coins in my safe deposit box, where they have stayed. I wrote their names on their coins but they never see them.

I could see mine taking it and trying to put it in a vending machine to get a bouncy ball.

Reading this thread had inspired me to start a coin collection for my one week old son. I collected baseball cards as a kid and what a waste. I like the idea of getting coins from 100 years before his birth. Seems like 1913 had a lot going on with coins. Any significance to this year in the history of coins? Where are you finding values of non graded coins. I have been checking out ebay and have already bought a great condition wheat penny, but it seems to me that people are paying more than coins are worth in most cases. What's the deal?
