<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Grass Man, post: 2526729, member: 79939&quot;]I worry as much about fire as theft.&nbsp; A safe deposit box contents is uninsured, but more secure than any home system.&nbsp; I&#039;ve seen photos of what was left when boxes at a bank were rifled open by professionals.&nbsp; You&#039;d not believe it.&nbsp; As far as home safes are concerned, the fireproof ones produce moisture and the little bitty 200 lb. ones just make it easier to carry off.&nbsp; There&#039;s really no completely safe way to store coins.&nbsp; At some banks they keep the humidity high in the vault to better preserve documents and this is bad for coins.&nbsp; And if your deposit box is below ground level, the box is going to fill up with water in a flood.&nbsp; The suggestions by those before me are good ones, but if a thief wants your prize, he&#039;s going to get it whether you are home or not.&nbsp; The security system with a cellular dialer is about as good a protection as you can get, but then you are relying on the police response time.&nbsp; If someone is lying injured in the road, that&#039;s going to get top priority over your prized possessions.&nbsp; A big dog who barks a lot is a deterrent too.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
