When I was a kid we got a $1 coin each tooth, though when the tooth fairy "forgot" the next night she gave $2! My twin sis and I got hoping that the tooth fairy would forget so we would ger the $2!!!
$1 or $2, depends what I have in my purse. One of the kids at my DD's school gets $50!!! per tooth!!! I asked his mum if their tooth fairy would visit my house if I ripped my teeth out...
For some reason I too think it has to be a gold coin. My eldest lost his first tooth late last year and he got $1, my theory is that the bigger teeth will be worth more.
He was also told that if a tooth falls out and it has decay on it then the tooth fairy pays less for that tooth. He is very very diligent at brushing his teeth morning and night since then. Don't even have to remind him.
