<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SwendiCoin, post: 1251844, member: 18768&quot;]I keep my most valuable coins in a safe deposit box, but I&#039;ve been shopping around for a home safe to keep the less valuable stuff in. That way I can get by with a smaller safe deposit box and save money.&nbsp; In my case, I&#039;m mostly concerned with fire protection.&nbsp; I&#039;m leaning towards a Gardall safe that has 2 hour fire protection.&nbsp; That means the temp shouldn&#039;t exceed 350 degress for two hours.&nbsp; Hopefully the fire department would have the fire out by then.&nbsp; But a lot of my coins are in plastic cases and those, I expect, would melt even before 350 is reached.&nbsp; Or is is possible that NGC and PCGS use plastic with higher melting points?&nbsp; Also, what would you do if the case did melt?&nbsp; Could you save the coin?</p><p><br /></p><p>By the way, one shop I stopped at has one of the Sentry Safes on display that had been broken open and the claim was that it was done with bare hands, no tools.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
