As time passes and my years as a collector add up, I seem to have found a middle ground. The great majority of my
collection from a value standpoint is locked away, but I make periodic trips to the vault to swap two or three keepers. That and I have a
collection of “practically worthless but aesthetically pleasing as a whole” coins that I keep at
home: common coins, coins badly damaged on one
side, holed coins, broken coins, cracked coins, black cabinet coins, etc. That way I can always be reminded of the
history, but also able to not worry.
