As you my know Franklin my son who is fifteen and has autism and can not read. He keeps finding the odd coins over and over in the penny rolls he looks at so we used a hot glue gun and glued on a coin on the tube that it go in. So we are making one for each coin that we have three are more of the same. Now Franklin can file them as he goes. :D

Sweet! You know I bet Dad can appreciate the organization the Franklins needs and realizes the blessing it is! Talk about efficient.

Cool idea! Franklin sounds like he's a human Ryedale! He's lucky to have such a caring father, i love reading your post's.

I like it! 8-)
You could also place all those coins on your scanner and print a life size copy, then cut out the coins and glue that to the tubes.

That's such a great idea! Although it might be bothersome to take the top coin off if you ever decide to do so.

is it just me, or is one of those a proof?

Yes Franklin has found proofs in rolls. Here they are before they went in to the tube.

Awesome how much he truly enjoys it. Maybe I get a bunch of the oddball stuff I have laying around and send it to you. Much have it go to someone who would appreciate it
