I'm not a fan of keeping valuable coins/collectibles in storage units even if temp/humidity controlled. They are better at home, coins in a safe with security cameras or in bank box IMO.

Spence Moderator United States 34393 Posts	Posted 09/05/2025 7:24 pm Agree with that storage tip @liv. The article doesn't say whether or not the collection was found intact--fingers crossed that it is.

That's quite a volume of coins. Quote: A matching battery charger was later found in a vehicle in which Ehrman was a passenger, at which point Ehrman fled. It seems to be happenstance that the perp was found. Maybe he had not yet started to pawn the coins.
