    And how many tens of thousands can you find of thefts that don't involve coins?

    Ah come on, get your head out of the sand and realize there's more to life than coin thefts.

    You and quite a few others around here make me feel like a complete slacker. I don’t even know most of that information.

    Voice of reason.........bad things happen to good people and it will always happen, and it will never end. There is nothing that the 'liberal' mind will ever conjure to insure our safety. Goober restraints to protect us. More and more, a cry for the government to protect us, love us, take care of us. How about we stand up on our own two feet and protect ourselves? Restrictions and restraints do little to protect us, and in essence, limit our 'rights'.......

    Nothing political here. Just a sort of thought from an old man who's seen much in the past and envisions a 'train wreck' in the future.

    The other half shouldn't ever let one get so reckless.
    The people will have the final say, I see them getting smarter/wiser every day.

    Not specifically, no. they drag their feet on everything when it comes to proving ownership of a coin, or a collection of coins.

    How can you prove you own something, other than possession. If you have a list with receipts, they will say, "How do we know you didn't sell it". This is true of the cops and the TPGer and dealers and auction houses. That is why coin pedigree is important. And that is why that until the benefit of the doubt is given to the crime victims, this dangerous condition will continue unchecked.

    Call the Keystone Kops. This can not stand, because, well, because it can't.
    Ban him! Torches and Pitchforks March at Midnight against the member!!

    Really, Moderator? Really? This is your focus? Members calling for another member to leave and stop posting doesn't interest and awaken the fair Moderation blood of inclusion of all members that voice an opinion, no matter how unpopular?

    Silly alignment of moderation priorities, there, I think. Just MY opinion.

    Truth in editing: changed "popular" to "unpopular", to fit the circumstances.

    Colonel Potter's favorite remark........HORSEHOCKEY!

    You're just making things up to support your theory.

    Case in point
    Years ago, there was a burglary and theft of coins from a residence in Ohio which occurred while the owner was on vacation. Some weeks later, a man walked into a coin shop in the Florida panhandle wanting to sell some coins. The store owner recognized a very expensive coin in the lot as one that he had sold to the Ohio collector. Thinking quickly, he told the man that he would have to get the cash from the bank the next morning and asked him to come back the next day. The coin dealer then contacted the local police, and an officer in plain clothes was there to arrest the perp when he returned.

    Don't tell me that the cops don't care!
