Introduction
Welcome to Coin Collecting for Kids! I am excited to share my knowledge, and welcome any that you might have. I have made this blog so that all you kids out there can learn the way of the coin collector. I'll try to keep it easy to understand. No fancy language here :)
Here are some of the things you can look forward to in my posts:

Coin of the Week:
There are some great coins out there and I have put together this part to show some of them to you. This coin, as the name implies, changes weekly.
Trial and Error:
Even coins aren't perfect. They can be struck twice, off center, or even on the wrong kind of coin, such as a dime design on a nickel. They can also be tested, as in put on a coin, but not meant to be spent. These are trial and error coins. Read these posts to learn more about these cool coins.
Amazing Artists:
Somebody has to design our coins, right? This section is devoted to these great men and women. The worked hard to give us these coins. But I can't fire a gun salute to them on this blog, so instead I have this little area just for them.
