I think I am going through that right now. I have been collecting for years it seems and I just spent a lot of money on more books, containers and items for my coins just to find out it's not even good or safe for them. Almost felt like throwing them out the door and having a pitty party personally. I'm still undecided on it because I'm OCD and I can't start on it now because it's not good for the coins. And this will drive me crazy, everything has to have order .....#128565;#8205;#128171;

I know that feeling, the need for order. I hope you are able to sort it out and get your coins properly moved into safer homes.

I joined this forum because I enjoy sharing and chatting about coins, which keeps the interest flowing.
Levels of interest does flow in cycles, and has its ups and downs. A supportive
community such as this one is an antidote to the low periods. The coins will
not go away until you decide they must. Change happens to all of us.
As for photos, it's not that hard to take decent pics with an ordinary camera.
I do not own a smart phone, so cannot comment on that. But practice makes
for better results. All I use are gooseneck lamps with full spectrum bulbs from Walmart,
and a digital Fuji camera that is 20+ years old.
Best of luck to you.
