<p>[QUOTE=&quot;nicholasz219, post: 3668672, member: 75641&quot;]Since I collect ancients and foreign, I gave my wife everything in the will to disperse as she sees fit to the kids, first of all.&nbsp; She also knows that if there were any interest from the kids when I croak that they should get the things they are interested in.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>With that being said, I created a database with the wife’s help using google forms.&nbsp; It’s neat because it is a form so I can though the fields easily skipping stuff that isn’t known or relevant for certain coins.&nbsp; When I click submit the whole thing gets saved to the database which then can be viewed as a spreadsheet.&nbsp; I had tried to manually type in my collection when I was young in a spreadsheet using Lotus and it was miserable.&nbsp; The form makes it pleasant plus I can also save an image of the coin as part of the spreadsheet record.</p><p><br /></p><p>I’ve also given her the prices paid and from whom which is a combo of real dealers and eBay stuff for the cheapies.&nbsp; I let her know that it will probably only result in an offer of about 50% retail (hence inclusion of prices paid) and gave her the names of a few people/firms I think will be around when I am not.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course it would be nice to hand it over to the kids because they are really interested before I go.&nbsp; They have shown interest but who knows in the future.&nbsp; If it makes more sense and gives my wife comfort or money whichever is needed more, I’ve tried to give her the info and a relatively easy way to liquidate so she can do whatever she needs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
