<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TheMont, post: 2652152, member: 80121&quot;]Here&#039;s a good one. A local Priest had a coin collection of certified coins that was stolen from his room. He had the serial numbers of the holders written down so he printed them up and visited any place in the area that might deal in coins. He walked into a shop that &quot;buys and sells gold and silver&quot; to drop off the list and there was his collection in the display case. The Priest showed the owner his list and told him that he had his stolen coins. Get ready for this...</p><p><br /></p><p>The store owner offered to sell the coins to the Priest for wholesale. Needless to say the Priest called the police, told them where he was and what he found. I don&#039;t have to finish this story, the police confiscated the coins (they were ultimately returned to the Priest) and arrested the store owner for receiving stolen merchandise. They wouldn&#039;t have been so hard on the store owner, but he tried to sell the Priest his own coins after the Priest was able to prove they were his. The Priest had filled a report with all local law enforcement and also gave them a copy of the serial numbers, so there was no doubt they were his.</p><p><br /></p><p>I photograph all my valuable coins and keep a copy on my computer, on my back-up drive and off premises on a flash drive. Hope I never have to use them. If it&#039;s a gold or rare silver coin, I have to visit them at my local bank, and I leave in a relatively safe area that han&#039;t had a break-in in years.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
