Supposedly he only opened his store up for a few hours a week and only allowed people who had an appointment in....or people he knew, Very unfortunate. This shop is about an hour from me....and this is the first time I heard of it. definitely a sad day.

So sad to hear. Its really a shame that being a coin dealer/collector can make oneself such a large target for lowlifes.

I blame gold/silver prices. Something small that is valuable makes for a bigger target. I always get nervous carrying more than 1/4 ounce of gold or 20 ozt silver. 16 ozt is only 1 pound, but thats 20k of gold. I feel safer with my clad proofs. A whole box is maybe $200.

Hope they catch the perpetrator and lock him away to rot in prison.

Its shocking that this all occurred in Albemarle, its a safe community given that that was their first homicide of the year

Unfortunately there is still no info on what coins if any were stolen ...

Photo should be clear enough to ID this piece of dirt.
Looks kind of like a transient.

Sounds like a crime ridden area all around, just checking that news page, I would feel it out of the ordinary for someone to not be getting killed, shot, etc.

The police finally caught the killer. Hopefully this guy gets to spend the rest of his pathetic existence in prison.

Its ironic because the perp had just got out recently ...the details emerging about him dont make good reading , he probably will be charged with murder 1 , this is such a sad case he didnt even have to shoot the shop owner, it was totally senseless ...

The video clip says the perp, "...was just released from prison in April for burglaries." How very sad for the family of the victim. At least they got the guy. Maybe this time justice will prevail.
