I bought this item for my dad for Christmas and he loved it. I can see this now becoming an annual tradition! It was a great buying experience and the set arrived earlier than I had expected, which was great because I ordered so close to Christmas.

The 2009 Blue Heron Set is a nice high quality set of coins to keep and/or to give as gifts. I gave one as a gift and think I'll keep the other two sets for myself. The coins are beautiful and the set comes in a nice soft case.

Since my children were born we have purchased one of these each year. My oldest is 8 and she is just now appreciating it and is thankful that we made the decision to purchase a set each year for her. I hope that we will be able to continue with the tradition.

I think that some of the items should be a little cheaper in price. I believe that others and myself would purchase more.
