As for myself, I am already in my 60s.  When I think the time is right, which will be probably in my 70s, I will start selling off my collection a little here , a little there and using the money for whatever I want.  I might make money on some or all of them or I might not.  I am sure they won't all sell at a loss but I will have had the enjoyment of them for the time I had them so as long as I am not losing hundreds on each coin, I will be happy with the cash in my pocket. My kids wouldn't be interested in all of the coins I have accumulated and would probably just sell it off cheap to grab the cash having no idea what any of it would be worth.  They are too old and have their own lives and no time to educate themselves.  My wife wouldn't know what to do with them either.  She knows what I do and goes with me to some shows, etc, but only looks for Thai coins and currency that might interest her. If I should suddenly die before it's all gone, my wife and my two girls are to sell it all and split the money 3 ways.  They may keep one coin that they pick to hopefully hold onto but it's  best to just divest themselves of the whole thing.  I won't be around to police them anyway and I will stipulate how they are to divest themselves of any coins that are still around.[/QUOTE]
