Nice set. Can't help but notice you don't have a Meiji 1 yen in there. Any particular reason?
Better off keeping it at the bank. Having a safe at home keeps stuff safe from floods and sometimes fire, but it won't necessarily stop a robbery...
Before it's locked, I think there is one thing that becomes clear after both sides have had their chance. People are not psychic. If someone had...
