It can be proven what was in there in case of disaster...although you will play h**l getting any insurance weenie to honor it. It will help in the event of theft, which is a real possibility for those not savvy enough to have purchased a safe! (and secured it in place...) And besides which, it ain't none o' yer business! Just advertise here ..."Come and Get it!" Edited by Crazyb0 01/19/2018 5:43 pm Report this Post to the Staff

If they don't know what the true value is, they might end up dumping or selling my collection cheap, after I am gone. Yes, this is important. A good reason to have the face value. You tell the kids, "You can spend it and get X, but if you make an effort you can get a large multiple of X!" Again, context. Without it your heirs might just think it is not worth their time to properly liquidate and just take it to the bank.

Along with my inventory ,I have left percific instructions for my Grandchildren of what I would like them to do with my collection when I'm gone . And that every Cent I have is worth more than face value . I also told them when the time comes to join CCF ,and that they will be more than glad to help you out with any questions they may have .

wolfgang-s New Member Canada 13 Posts	Posted 01/23/2018 5:25 pm Hello, In the End it is all about Money. The face Value of my coins does not tell me much. I went with the Catalog Value from NGC and got a Value of 26.000$. Now I took about 33% off that Value and end up with 8700$. That is about Right.......I think? Report this Post to the Staff

sosicoin Valued Member United States 393 Posts	Posted 02/21/2018 9:40 pm Hi, everyone. You are all cracking me up with your silly cents and underrated bouillon of gold & silver soups of accumulation. You are all so humble with what you got. What matters is the positive growth experience and enjoyment this hobby brings. Adrenalin rush keeps the heart strong and healthy. Let's keep on going....
