Trunk of your car


That would be the LAST place I'd ever keep any of my collection

The only coins I keep in my car are half dollars for the drive thru at Taco Bell and Wendys

Just moved but the old house had a great spot would like to have a contest, find it you can have it, new house is more of a challenge have not found appropriate spot yet.Always had a concern in a fire, hate to have to open all those capsulized coins.

I voted trunk of my car, since it is winter and icy I get better traction in this weather.

Although I said trunk of my car,I forgot to mention that they are in coffee cans and jars inside the trunk.
You should know better than to assume someone would just throw them into the trunk raw.

My coins are scattered on and around various tables in my house, Same goes for any coin related books I own. (I have absolutely no skill when it comes to originization, Heh.)
