That is good news. Half of my paper money collection got stolen/spent by people I know and I no longer collect those because of it. Luckily none of my coins got stolen. I trust my collection to very few people.

Well, I'm very glad you got them back, great perseverance and good job on the leg work. Now, any word on that "seller" - what happened to him/her?

Strange that the cops let the seller go. Here in Australia he would have been charged with stolen goods in possession (by law here if you find an item worth over $5 you are required to hand it to the police, if the item remains unclaimed after 3 months then the finder gets ownership).

Amazing work on tracking your stolen goods down, I imagine it was like halving a thorn in your neck and getting them back hopefully removed it:) hopefully you got everything back including any missing coins.
As for the person who stole the good idk there is much that can be done if there is no proof, possession of stolen goods I believe is illegal but it's an easy thing to get off with if there is no evidence you were the one to steal it then you just have to claim you didn't know it was stolen goods.
Edit:did you ever check on your ceramic hours? Hopefully it's ok as well.

Excellent news - I don't often hear that kind of outcome in cases like this!

Super late on this but I'm very glad it turned out for you, @Greasy!
I was the victim of a burglary some 10 years back now and I never did get any of my stuff back. Some ASEs and other coins, big screen TV, Playstation 3, DVDs, 3 guitars, etc. After that I bought a big 600-pound safe and now store all my valuable coins in there. Also moved away from that area to a neighborhood with less crime a few years back.

I'm a bit late on this post but, am so happy that the coins were found.
I always, always take photos of my coins, not all but most of them but, definitely for the rare and valuable ones. That way I have a visual proof of ownership as well as our well kept inventory. My photos aren't always the best so that's why some of my posts aren't clear, etc. I also take photos of them in their safely kept notebooks.
