Coin Safe
Coin collections and coins themselves have a deep rich history and to
preserve that history your coins need to be stored properly. Not to
mention the monetary value that a well properly stored coin collection
will provide to your heirs. Coins are made of metal, and with the
exception of gold, most will react negatively with a variety of
different environmental factors. A final type of collector is the inheritor, an accidental collector who
acquires coins (a collection, hoard or investment) from another person
as part of an inheritance. The inheritor may not necessarily have an interest in or know anything about numismatics at the time of the acquisition. Speculators, be they amateurs or commercial buyers, generally purchase
coins in bulk and often act with the expectation of short-term profit.
They may wish to take advantage of a spike in demand for a particular
coin (for example, during the annual release of Canadian numismatic collectibles from the Royal Canadian Mint). The speculator might hope to buy the coin in large lots and sell at profit within weeks or months. Speculators may also buy common circulation coins for their intrinsic
metal value. Coins without collectible value may be melted down or
distributed as bullion for commercial purposes. Typically they purchase
coins that are composed of rare or precious metals, or coins that have a
high purity of a specific metal.
