Well, I've several bank bags out in the shop, I used to tos all my change into a pot, eventually dump it in sacks out there... Always intending to sort and check 'em out, even have a few coin counters in the garage, spinning disk, adjust per coin type... Even have a desk area out there to set it up, but, like a lot of things, never quite got around to it... Maybe form the 60s on to the late 90s... random mix... Someday...

Parent;s had some gold coins from way back, blink, some local banker talked em out of 'em before any of the kids had a shot at 'em... Oh, well... they did that with other 'stuff', blink, gone...

Myself, it would drive 'em crazy, wide interests, some sorted out, identified, tons of tools, cameras, books, tools, power tools.. Daughter is scared.. Dad, it won't even burn! Too much metal! Saws, lathes, wood/metal, more saws, planers, jointers, tools, welders, compressors... Drawers, bins, buckets... 4 or 5 buckets of just hammers... Started to donate , but schools are cutting back on shop programs, Goodwill, nope... But I have some old tool, knife collector friends, I'll have to set them up to deal with it, maybe auction 'em off... Maybe eBay...

I'm coming up on 10,000 coins in my collection, which I've been working on since I was in grade school. For years I considered myself an accumulator as I would check all my change and put away anything over a certain age, but in the last 2 or 3 years I've started to actually buy coins and fill in all the holes in collection. I have no Gold but I do have a fair amount of Silver.
