Anyone who has a large amount would be prudent to have a safe deposit box and other measures. If you keep a large amount at home you are crazy even without revealing it on here!
Not crazy, for sure, all in a bank. I'm often asked why I don't have debit card also. My best friend in South Daytona had his hacked 3 times in 8 months ( Sun Trust Bank ). BOA had 25 million accounts hacked also. Reason enough for me not to have a debit card. Not even if the bank covers the losses, too much hassle.
This original post is like someone joining a gun forum and them asking how many guns and how much ammo everyone has. Some things are meant to be kept secret, and NOT put on a public forum. Sure, we post photos of the stuff we have, or if we have a question on it. But I don't think anyone on here posts EVERYTHING they have. And for good reason.
I have at least one Mercury dime (with environmental damage), which contains 0.07234 oz silver. I have it in a safe, which is contained inside another safe, which is located 20 feet below a bank layered in poured concrete. 'ya know, just in case.
That's a nice start, you've got the bookends - hold on to your dimes and fill in the sets with 10c coins from 1917-1963; mount them in albums and you'll have a valuable little collection of silver - good luck !
It's not foolproof, but it is the most secure place for most collectors. You can also buy insurance if you wish.
Thanks. Im just not really that much into silver, although I do admit an older coin like a 1908 or something is pretty cool to realize that coin was around for everything, ww1, ww2, great depression, everything. I really do enjoy that 1916 Mercury though. It is one hell of a beautiful coin. Looks brand new and I am sure when I get it graded it will get the FB designation. I saw a 1916 on EBAY graded PCGS MS 66 and I think mine looks at least as good with at least as much detail. I have to send it for grading soon, just haven't really been overly motivated since even in MS 67 its only a $150 coin so I would keep it either way.
Won and Winning Stiel 3 Heritage 0 as many issues this country has its presently illegal to steal. This is me laughing my ass off Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
There is the truth right there. Myself, not a ton of 99%. Most of mine is junk like morgans, WL, etc.
Hugh, I take it from the stale post at #134 that you've had some legal success in your action re: Heritage? Aware that there may be a non-disclosure as part of it, allow me to just give you a hearty "good on ya" if that's the situation.
