My father recently gave my five year old son an 1883 silver dollar and my son thinks it's the coolest thing ever. My wife and I have scrounged up some of our random coins and he just loves looking at them and talking about them.
His sixth birthday is coming up and I would love to get him a set of pretty, interesting, shiny coins. Obviously he's pretty young so we don't want to get anything of real value. Is there a resource where I could purchase a VERY beginner set of coins for him? I think the most diverse in terms of dates, countries of origin and materials would be the best. but I have no clue where to look. I'm thinking of spending $25-40.
Any help would be appreciated. And since I don't have any coins of note to share a picture of, I've attached a picture of Hank himself.
