    I'm sorry but the reporting in this case is terrible.

    The best they could narrow it down was to a range of $17,400. Come on man!

    All Yahoo! coin news stories are bad reporting. The authors dont know what they're talking about. Also look at the picture of a "quarter".

    Don't be too hard on Yahoo, they sometimes include relevant articles from Yahoo Voices in the newsfeed. It's actually pretty refreshing to read news from an untainted source and those amateurs (like me!) have at least as much credibility as anyone in the thoroughly discredited alpabet news agencies.

    Make that pretty much ALL yahoo new stories! The writers are mostly third rate bogging hacks that write freelance trash...don't get me going lol. I usually read them for the comments haha.

    But still, it shows what the level of inteligence is of the people who stole the coins. Really? But things like this are also why it's still possible to get lucky and make good finds if you are CRH'ing. Between this and just stupid kids that steal from their parents to buy a bag of chips at school lol.

    Why would you not at least have a safe to put them in or a safety deposit box?

    Some idiot inherited a coin collection they never should have inherited. That's what I take from this story.

    Too late, his girlfriend is 9 months pregnant. It's likely his; he's already procreated so add one more moron to the pool.
