    Probably another dealer stole it. With all we read about dealers on the boards, it wouldn't surprise me.

    << <i>Probably another dealer stole it. With all we read about dealers on the boards, it wouldn't surprise me. >>



    Unlikely but certainly possible. A coin dealer friend had four high grade slabbed classic commemorative coins stolen from his case. He told me they were stolen by another coin dealer. I asked him how he knew it was a coin dealer that stole them and he replied that the coins went missing before the show was opened to the general public. I think dealers tend to be a little more lax when it comes to security when it's a fellow dealer that is looking through their inventory.

    So much for "there's less demand for gold."

    Sad to hear the fellows Ive worked with from Emporium Hamburg have always been so nice.

    Gave me some amazing German Chocolates last time I spoke with them at a show.
