That's good, that's how it's done. If I recall, my Dad passed me some of his coins which got me fired up to complete his penny collection... and I did. It would be nice to see some of the younger generation take up collecting but I get a sense that they don't. I mean, even collecting comic books even isn't a thing. Your coin collection, I'm assuming you have them in plastic sleeves or something? It's funny, a lot of coins if the same size and colour could be passed as legal tender. One time, I received a coin from Jamaica as it was passed off as a quarter. I never passed it on since I collect lol. Thanks.
