[QUOTE="physics-fan3.14, post: 798530, member: 19165"]I have an extensive Excel spreadsheet cataloging my collection, which should make it easier for my family to know what I have. I have also given the name of a dealer I trust to my mother and brother - and told them to contact him in case something happens. If you are going to do this, make sure its a dealer that you trust completely. Also, make sure the dealer knows and is aware that you gave your family his name. My family doesn't know anything about coins, and for the most part they don't care - so leaving them a letter like the OP's would not help them (although its a great idea if you think they might be interested). As much as you might not want to think about this subject, it is an important concern, especially when you collection starts getting valuable.[/QUOTE]
