<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 747949, member: 3011&quot;]I&#039;m happy to hear that you are doing well, and I hope you continue to post here for many years.&nbsp; I&#039;ve seen two pretty good coin collections in my family ruined as they passed from generation to generation because the recipients didn&#039;t appreciate what they had.&nbsp; If you don&#039;t want to sell them yourself [I wouldn&#039;t either], then you probably should write a pretty lengthy letter to you son explaining what you own, what they could be worth, which coins are the most valuable, and how he might go about disposing of them in a way to realize fair value for them.&nbsp; Give him a copy of the letter now and leave another with the collection.&nbsp; Once a person has it explained to him that the cent they are holding is really worth $3, and the dollar is worth $30, they are less likely to dump them all for a nominal value.&nbsp; This is what I&#039;ve done, and I hope my kids are smart enough to either keep the coins or sell them intelligently.&nbsp; I gave them the roadmap, but they have to do the legwork.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
