Yes and no. I do have gold in the bottom of the fish tank but no ..I don't have a summer home in the Smokeys. I lost my one and only home last year to foreclosure.

Safe I just picked up a Sentry safe from walmart. Seems to be alright, you can bolt them to the ground if needed. I would just keep my coins in their own tubes or containers and keep any guns you might have in its own as well.
Tommybee, Good for you!. You would make a good role model. I am working in that direction, but not fully complete with all the check marks for our plan. I have two homes. One in town and one is at a rural farm. So I use the safety deposit box at the bank. Because of the potential risk from Tornados, I do feel a bit vulunerable. I might be getting some insurance. I have a security system at the farm, and a 180 pound dog. I have the CCW, but don't carry regularly - still figuring out the holster challenges for women in dresses. I am not a very good "purse" carrier - and I think purses attract trouble in the big cities, or in locked cars. We have two safes in town, one is locked with a few PCGS graded notes and household warrenty papers. The other is left unlocked and holds a few less valuable items (no combo yet). BTW, I am very impressed with the 15 boxes of nickels. Way to go.
not sure if you plan to, but i would bolt it. a safe aint much good if it can be picked up. even if its heavy two guys break into your house, and see the safe, chances are they are going to pick it up.
