Where Should You Keep Your Rare Coins?
At the end of the day, the decision is up to you entirely. Would you prefer to keep your collection of valuable rare coins locked in a safety deposit box? How about tucked away in a drawer in your home office? Perhaps you’d like to keep them proudly on display throughout your home so you can enjoy each coin’s unique aesthetic appeal.
If you prefer a safety deposit box, it’s as simple as making a trip to the bank and going through the process of storing them away for safekeeping until you’re ready to do something else with them.
As far as keeping them in a drawer, you may wish to find a box to store your rare coins in, ensuring that they’re all in the same place should you need access to them. It’s as easy as that!
Want to Put Your Rare Coins on Display?
If, on the other hand, you prefer to enjoy looking at your collection of rare coins on a regular basis, perhaps keeping them on display is the way to go.
There are a number of ways to do this and it all depends on your personal preference.
One of the easiest things you can do is to purchase a shadow box and set it up in such a way that your favorite coin or two are easily visible. You could also opt to purchase a display box. Whether you choose to display a single coin or your entire collection will largely depend on what you’re trying to accomplish.
As a matter of fact, some display cases even allow for multiple drawers, each lined with protective cushioning on the bottom to ensure nothing gets jumbled around and that each of your rare coins stays in its right place.
From there, the organization is up to you. You can choose to organize your coins by date of mintage, by rarity, or however else you choose. If you’d prefer to keep your rare silver coins in one display case and your rare gold coins in another, that’s perfectly acceptable.
Whether you display your collection of rare coins in a home office, in the living room, or anywhere else depends entirely on your preference. The key, of course, is to do what works for you. However you choose to display your collection or rare coins, the thing to remember is that you should enjoy them!
