<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 1313685, member: 19065"]Highly doubtful given how quickly heists tend to happen and how slow the response time of investigators. If the materials were stolen unbeknownst for a period of time, there is plenty of time to melt things or separate them in multiple directions before being detected. IF the owner is killed in the heist (re: <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t190866/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t190866/">Steven Halfron</a> Liberty Coin owner) how would the owner report quickly what was stolen. The GPS idea isn't foolproof. Most heists of precious metals quickly seek the melting pot to change the form and disappear the stolen material asap.
