Someone knew what was being shipped and when.
Emphasis being on WHEN...
I'm not surprised. I had my packages come up "Missing" or "USPS never entered the Tracking Number into the Tracking system" in a month from a well known auction site! Turns out the USPS "Thiefs" would never enter the tracking number into the system thinking they could steal the packages before and they would never never be found.
"Memento mori !"
What a terrible shame to do that as well
I don't suppose there is a website that contains all the PCGS, NGC and other certification numbers of coins that have been stolen, so that dealers and retail buyers can quickly check to see whether a coin is hot. Probably too difficult to coordinate and update. And it would only work for certified coins.

Superb collections are built more by omission than by addition.
There are TOO MANY people who apparently know what to look for in terms of packaging or address/return address.
We need stings, trials, and convictions with long jail sentences at the end.
Hope they catch them.

I'm a little bothered by the title of this thread.
"GSAs stolen in mail" suggests that they were shipped by USPS. "Mail" is associated with the USPS.
These were shipped by FedEx. So, "stolen in transit" would be more accurate.
Thank you!
