    Oh I am sure the proof set has more value than the Lira, both the proof set and the lira though are nice reminders to them of how special they are (our kids) to us.
    He was 1 when we moved back to the USA, so he only has photographs. But some day I will take him so he can see were we lived.

      And someday I will take my son to Italy so he can see where I wish we could have lived!

        Georgia is beautiful, Italy, really is just like Ca. in regard to the weather. But I went to GA a few years back for work and love it there. It is so green, love that. I want to move there or Oregon.

          Georgia does have its moments, and yes, very green. Were you in Atlanta? I've been to Ca a few times; mostly socal. One thing I love about California(depending on where in the state you are at) is that you are only a days road trip away from so many different climes and scenes. One thing I want to do, but haven't yet had the opportunity, is to visit wine country.

            I'm In Socal, and very close to Temecula (lots of wine vineyards, just started growing my own vines too and will start growing hops very soon as well) 30 minutes to the beach and 30 minutes to the mountains.
            I was close to Atlanta, I was at a resort, didn't get to leave much, but I love the small town feeling, where everyone knows your name, and people smile instead of push you out of the way lol. Actually in Aptos Ca. that place is amazing too, people are so nice, a lot of baby boomer hippies, nice homes, and beautiful beaches with lots of trees.

              Ummm...and you want to move to Georgia why?! j/k...I definitely understand the attraction to a small town, laid back people and familiar faces. Unfortunately I don't get any of that in Atlanta.

                If the 5 is hit with finesse, it will not smashed, but would create a double impression such as what happened to your coin.

                  therefore it is worth lots of $$$$, to hit something with finesse is talent. "ooo la la.... finesse" lol j/k, but seriously

                    My son is the reason I got back into collecting as well. He is 11 to and it is fun to do things with him. He loves it
                    Coins are the only hobby you can spend all your money on and still have something to spend.

                      That is awesome, isn't just so much fun, 11 is a great age.

                        I agree. My daughter is 7 and we are having so much fun. I don't want them to grow up but I don't think I have a choice. Lol

                          I don't even need to go on a road trip to see crazy weather that changes ever minute, I live in san francisco where you can't predict the weather AT ALL (except fog ) Wine country is great. I go up to Sonoma to visit friends a few times each summer, and it's great. For some reason if I was blindfolded and dropped into napa I would know where I was by the air...there's a smell or feel to it that's completely unique.

                            Finesse is talent, but to CDI (Created Double Impression) is against the rule of man and of GOD. Imagine how these people are trying to make fun of new collectors; it's unconscionable!
