$63,000 Coin Collection Stolen in North Carolina

Also, I'm somewhat of a skepticist. Did anyone else notice how everything that was stolen was a full set. Many times I operate out of Dansco's. I sell coins out of them, I buy coins and put them in them. The hole story, if it's true, and it may not very well be, justs sounds all to organized to be a factual account of a robbery. Either the inventory was not correctly reported or it was quickly followed by a call to an insurance company.

at least they were recovered. i am sure we will hear further details as they are released as to what really happened. But for now, at least the coins were recovered.

Snaz-
Do you have a concealed carry license for that? If you break into my house and ask for my cash, I would have to give you Monopoly money.
Very safe gun, though. Canadians are famously polite, but I didn't realize it included self defense firearms. We truly are barbarians down here.
Think I'll go shoot at a stop sign now. Mike

 

Is that little one a Colt Mustang?

 

Watch out for those angry Canadians.......

......occurred Wednesday night as the bus - en route from Edmonton to Winnipeg, Manitoba - traveled a desolate stretch of the TransCanada Highway through the Canadian Prairies......

Witnesses described a grisly murder that occurred as some were napping and others watching "The Legend of Zorro" on the bus's television screens.

Shortly after passengers reboarded the bus following a break, the suspect - for no apparent reason - stabbed the man sitting next to him several dozen times as passengers fled in horror, witnesses said. He then severed the man's head, displayed it and began hacking at the body.

Garnet Caton, who was sitting just one seat in front of the two men, said he did not hear the two speak to each other before the attack.

"We heard this bloodcurdling scream and turned around, and the guy was standing up, stabbing this guy repeatedly," Caton said.

Caton said the driver stopped the bus when he became aware of the attack and passengers raced off. A short while later, Caton said he re-boarded along with the bus driver and a trucker who had stopped to see what was happening.

He said the suspect had the victim on the floor of the bus and "was cutting his head off" with a large hunting knife.

"When he was attacking him, he was calm," said Caton. "There was no rage or anything. He was just like a robot stabbing the guy."

The attacker turned toward them and the three men quickly left the bus, blocking the door as the attacker slashed at them through an opening. Caton said the driver disabled the vehicle after the attacker tried to drive it away.

As the three guarded the door with a crow bar and a hammer, the attacker went back to the body and calmly came to the front of the bus to show off the head, Caton said.

Cody Olmstead, another passenger, said the man "dropped the head and went back and started cutting the body." Olmstead said the man later use the head to taunt police.

Greyhound spokeswoman Abby Wambaugh said there were 37 passengers aboard.

The victim had been on the bus since Edmonton. Caton said the attacker boarded the bus in Brandon, Manitoba, about 80 miles west of Portage La Prairie.

The suspect had been on the bus about an hour and initially did not sit near the victim, Caton said. But he changed seats after a rest stop.

My only advice for coinfreak24 is: if you are going to shoot someone, you don't want to leave alive to sue you. You will lose in today's anti-gun environment. A dead body that has broken into your house will have a much smaller chance of winning when their relatives file suit, (and they will). If left alive, you would probably lose the suit and have your dogs confiscated. At the very least you spend a fortune defending yourself in court.
