Agreed, I would love to inherit some heirloom myself, but all of my family collect nothing of value, let alone collect anything. If it was me I would keep it, but then again I am a fan of old Lugers or military memorabilia.
Sad part is all my grandfathers fought in World Wars as well.
Now one mans treasure can be another mans heartache to deal with selling or getting rid of. I think this is all of my families thoughts, no point collecting or keeping something that may or may not have any value or desire to another generation family member.
