Do burgulars know you have coins in your home? Is your business tagged?
A British Daily Mail article, 9 Jan 2013, “The secret language of crime: Police reveal symbols used by burglars to help fellow criminals target rich and vulnerable homes...”
Further into the article there is some interesting information about Hobo codes.

I like trespassers will be shot, survivors will be shot again.
Surprisingly, there's a hobo emoji:

Interesting !!!
Many years ago, the hobo markings were fairly common... The village I grew up in had a railroad station, and rail riding hobo's were not uncommon in the warm months. Hobo marks were seen at various homes/establishments. Some owners would remove them... others left them. Those days are gone now... Cheers, RickO
