<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Leadfoot, post: 711493, member: 2972&quot;]I would only worry after the dealer said something was wrong.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have not heard of many dealers flat out stealing coins from people in all my years of collecting.&nbsp; I can think of one or two stories, but far fewer than the house break ins and thefts at coin shows by real thieves rather than dealers -- so I&#039;d be far more concerned with that rather than leaving a coin with a dealer.</p><p><br /></p><p>As an aside, I once thought a dealer was pulling a fast one on me by claiming a coin I gave to him got lost before it was sent to NGC.&nbsp; He ended up replacing the coin, a raw gold dollar, with a PCGS MS 64 coin of my choosing.&nbsp; A few months later, he called me to tell me he found the coin along with a few other coins that had somehow fallen into a stamp book in the safe.&nbsp; I returned to the store and traded the slabbed coin for my original coin.&nbsp;&nbsp; The coin that was once lost eventually was sent to PCGS and came back MS 65.&nbsp; So all in all, it eventually worked out, but believe me it was worrisome at the time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
