SD box for the rare ones. Had one for decades. Not necessarily expensive cards, the items it took years to find. Insurance covers the rest quite adequately.
I don't like home safes. I want a robber in and out quickly, not sticking a gun in my face or my family's face to force the safe open. If you put your wife on as a co-signatory for the SD box she can get access if you die [or sooner--better trust her before you put her name in there]. With the estate tax not kicking in until well over $5 million, however, and that number indexed for inflation my hunch is that the value of cards isn't going to impact the value and taxation of most estates.

Boxes
Was executor on estate of guy whose box was in a bank that flooded in a major flood. It was months before I was given access. Fortunately his box was up high . When I got access you could see the flood line half way up the vault. Anything paper in the boxes below it was a total loss. I saw some folks going through some of those.

Al, do you remember the old Lemay Bank in St. Louis flooded during '93. I believe a priceless violin was down low and lost in the flood.

Dig a hole and place into a time capsule. Then include in your will, the GPS coordinates for your siblings to find.

If you can't hold the cards, even if they're in plastic, and look at them on demand then what's the point? Might as well buy stocks, maybe not right now, and look at scans on here. More or less the same thing except you don't get the ability to boast about your collection to others.
