That's interesting, because I would find it invigorating. That would be hours and hours of fun. Especially if the coins you've already shown in...
I once got to look through and 'value' decades worth of coin accumulations my dad's friend. It wasn't just simple change, it was piles of...

Nice space. If the basement is temperature controlled (which you said) you shouldn't have any issues with general humidity. As for plumbing...
