Yes. I worry about the same issue, Ive got terminal lung cancer so in time my 'collection' will be passed on, so its 'sellability' is a critical factor, I suspect many a coin collection that has been carefully and lovingly put together over many years has been passed on to a new generation only to be broken up and sold off cheaply either through ignorance, carelessness or even dodgy dealers taking advantage of the sellers lack of knowledge, my only answer to this is to keep the collection as simple as possible (not easy) and leave copious notes with the collection for my son to decipher in years to come, best wishes to all

Thats a shocker slack.. make the most of whats left   ive always said spend it all. but If you are leaving loot for the kids then sovs are best..  if its a proper 'collection' make sure your son knows what you are leaving him.   including the effort n love of metals you put into it.  fair sailing sir....

Sorry to hear this slack and it's admirable that you are thinking of something physical with both value and meaning to pass on.  

I've no doubt that in the future if those you were building your stack for were ever introduced here they would be treated with the utmost respect.
