[QUOTE="IdesOfMarch01, post: 2743753, member: 39084"]You know, I've thought about this very issue, and there have been long periods (months) in which I've had my entire collection at home. Ultimately, the answer is that I have to find a balance between my enjoyment of having the coins available to hold and inspect vs. the security of knowing they're safer in the safe deposit box. Plus, it makes the enjoyment of them all the better when I have some or all of them in hand. As Ancient Joe points out, having good pictures of them goes a long way toward ameliorating their lack of physical presence in my house. I look at pictures of my coins very, very frequently. In some ways, it's similar to my browsing through all the pictures I took during my trip to Italy last Fall. While it's not the same as being there, doing this inevitably brings a lot of smiles and warm feelings, and helps me relive that trip.[/QUOTE]
