<p>[QUOTE="Gilbert, post: 2527141, member: 73104"]My unprofessional advice: store high value coins in a safety deposit box. Photograph them first so you can view at your leisure and have something for the police to send to local coin and pawn shops. Most coins are one of a kind, like a finger print, so documentation is important. If you do not trust banks then a hidden safe bolted to the floor, with little space on the sides for thieves to pry it open should be considered. A security system with one of the local companies is a good idea, but one using phone lines is just plain foolish -- even kids know to cut phone lines before entering. A wireless system that is connected to the company monitoring center is much better. If the antenna cable is cut the monitoring company knows immediately. And a hidden video recording system with motion/IR enabling capability should be considered.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
