Pretty timely resurrection of this old thread, I just returned from up the street, looking at a widow's coin collection. Her husband had spent decades telling her he wasn't spending much money, and she thought it may have been worth a few hundred dollars.

Hubby had spent decades lying to his wife. She is now going to take an asset worth easily seventy-five thousand dollars retail to some dealers to get bids on. This is not the first time I have seen this, for coins, first edition books, and guns.

Do itemize your gun stuff. Do assign costs and estimated values to it. Do total it up. Do put it all on a thumb drive and tuck it away. Do be honest with your spouse. It's better that they have an idea of what you have than the idea of little value.
