Random collector questions, trivial and/or sincere

1) When you ship a $410 coin do you insure it for $499 since the cost's the same? Is there a benefit if you filed a claim?

2) Do you ever send cash as payment? What's the most you've sent? Ever been sorry?

3) Do you bubble-wrap coins when you're shipping in bubble wrap envelopes?

4) Do you believe in Intercept shields? Do you mail coins in them? Use them for your own prizes?

5) Do you display pricey coins at home, in spite of the risk of theft, however small?

6) Is your home safe really that safe, do you worry it might be lifted in a burglary?

7) Can you enjoy your collection fully, when it is stored in a safety deposit box?

I think the answers are mostly yes but I wonder.

7 - No... I need them where I can immediately get my hands on them, not someplace under someone else's control.

7. No. That's one reason why I no longer collect expensive numismatic items.
