<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jmon, post: 643095, member: 19422&quot;]<span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana">Like many have said - a safe is worthless unless it too is properly protected. Most every safe has the bulk of its protection on the front side. Why? because it is made to be set in a recess or hole. Take most any 700++ lb safe and set it into a recess (solid... no wall board folks) where only the front is accessible and you have about as much protection as you can get. Does this make theft impossible? No, nothing does. But, it does allow me to keep a lot of coins at home and easily accessible. Ultra valuable coins need to be insured and kept in a safety deposit box. Does that make them theft proof? No... nothing does. If that isn’t good enough you could check on space at the Fort Knox Depository :goofer:</font></span></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Verdana">On a different, but related note - has anyone ever heard of anyone/place keeping a public record of stolen certified coins? It would seem to me that if we could create such a public record and encourage its use, we could deter a lot of theft. There will always be a black market, but, something like this would help individuals and dealers check for stolen coins and their recovery. Perhaps this would be a good spot for such a listing (hint hint Mod&#039;s/Developer&#039;s <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> )</font></span>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
