Please still keep an eye out for my coins that were ripped off.

Still no coins have surfaced. I could still use a hand looking for them. I can't really comment on any of the crime scene stuff or other info at this time. I am still hoping for recovery of some of these coins and hope the collectors/dealers here in the Southern Wisconsin and Northern Illinoise area can help me . Thanks for everyones help here. Mike

    Did you alert PCGS or NGC about this? There may be some submissions of raw coins coming in that coincidently have a lot of those dates and conditions you listed.

    Thanks Guy's. I was hoping something would have surfaced by now. This has been a total nightmare. I hope others can see this and insure their coins and valuables. I was happily sitting in Virginia Beach in a ocean front Hotel when my brother called and told me what happened- could hardly believe it at first. I had one day on vacation then had to drive back to Wisconsin. It really sucked changing all my paperwork when I got back home- bank papers,checking accounts,passports,credit cards and so-on.

    Are you keeping an eye on ebay auctions? I don't do craigslist but those two places do see stupid criminals unloading stolen property from time to time I hear.

    A friend of mine returned from Dubai from a vacation to see what all the glitz was like.
    Anyway he said there was a public execution going on somewhere and the public was invited
    to stone the thief. Crime is almost non existant.
    I not saying that extreme, but getting 3 squares , lifting weights, getting healthy ( Calif spends $17,000
    a year on inmate prison health care) BRING back the CHAIN GANGS! starve em' and humiliation.

    Local pawn shops would be my bet. They have most likely been "laundered" by now. The thieves probably traded them for pennies on the dollar for crack or meth, the dealers then sold them to their shady pawn shop friend for nickels on the dollar.

    I have been searching pawn shops twice a week. Looking on ebay and Craigs list too. I have pretty much given up hope of getting the whole group back in one piece. This is a devistating loss. I don't make a lot of money so this is pretty bad for me. This was going to be for retirement. Just makes me sick to think how much work I had to do make this much money and the years it took. Hard to get to sleep at night just thinking about it.

    May whoever stole them die a slow and painful death.
