Working at the SDB today, snapped a photo. Do you have a photo or is this a taboo?

    Get 'er full! I think that you eventually will get rid of the boxes and just rubber band the
    slabs together and stack them tight! Saves getting another SDB for a bit longer. However,
    it is always nice to have multiple boxes full, too!

    Rubber bands and coins don't mix well together because of their high sulfur content. Stretch a rubber band a few times and smell it. Remember that slabs aren't air tight.

    Aha! I reccognize those colors and plug locations....your secert's out! You're going to need a bigger box!
    It is not that life is short, but that you are dead for so very long.
  • Just curious what size box is it?

    My only concern about digital images is that most cameras indicate the GPS location somewhere in the picture file information. Given such information, it becomes easy for someone to pinpoint your location, and that may not be the level of security you want to maintain. I don't think there is anything wrong with taking such a picture.

    Anyone else can you verify that most digital pictures contain info on GPS location?

    A few expensive digital cameras have GPS (geotagging).

    The top photo was taken with an Apple iPhone.

    You have a decent viewing room, but a small SDB. I have a series of larger SDB's but a small not very well lit viewing room.

    BTW what is with the Kroger receipt on the left of the first picture? Are they collectable, perhaps even slabbable now? image

    I won't post it for the sake of the OP, but this photo does have the geographic coordinates. I've sent the OP a message containing a screenshot of his bank in case he doesn't think it's true. You all should heed the advice to make sure the GPS location and other EXIF data is stripped from your photos before posting them. >>



    It's interesting that you should write this because I did essentially the same thing for the OP.

    What difference does it make to have the GPS coordinates? Were talking about a bank vault, right?

    In this case it is simply a bank vault, but many folks do not realize the information that can be extracted from their images posted online and it might be helpful to those who take a coin or two home and then snap photos to share.

    I don't think there is an issue with Geotagged photos of items in your safe deposit box. I assume all safe deposit boxes include valuable articles!

    It's more of an issue if you take a photo in your house.

    I agree. I've dumped my PCGS Boxes in favor of cardboard slab boxes which hold considerable more stacked slabs and they take up less space.

    Raw coins in 2x2's get kept next to the meat eating carnivore.
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.
