Message:: [QUOTE="jmon, post: 642829, member: 19422"]I am sorry to hear for your losses, and truly hope you can recover them! Everyone else – this should be a lesson. I won’t say the value for obvious, but I will say I store a good bit of coins at home. However, to get them you need to get past my security system, my dog's, and through a very large safe that is bolted through the foundation and sitting in a recess. Can it happen, yes, but, you better have a good torch and a lot of time. That being said - $50K is a bit much to store at home, regardless of the reason (unless home is the Fort Knox Depository) <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> For those looking to keep coins at home, I highly recommend an EXTREEMLY heavy safe. A good starter might be a LARGE gun safe. You can find a decent one (20ish gun capacity 1/2"+ steel all the way around with double locking mechanisms and generally 3/4"+ face) for around 1K. To buy a "regular" safe with the same outer housing and security costs about 1.5-1.75K. Either way though, a good safe is a good investment. There is no way you are going to stop someone who REALLY wants what you have, but, you can easily stop the common thief from hitting the jackpot if you spend a little on security and are vigilant.[/QUOTE]
