A local dealer "East Coast Coins" was burglarized twice in the past few weeks. Once two weeks ago, when a small quantity of rolled coin was stolen, and once late last week in the midst of the largest snow storm to hit the region this year. The second time, a large safe was stolen, along with a quantity of silver dollars, maples, world bullion, Newfoundland notes, and a binder of ICS graded nickels, among other notable pieces.

Please refer to the following links, and email the store owner at rodod@nl.rogers.com if you have *any* information, even as slight as suspected sales of stolen items. There is a reward offered, I believe it is at least $1000.

Wow. Breaks my heart to hear about coins being stolen by little punks.

I was talking to the owner today, the lockbox that was stolen was, as I feared, his main lockbox...the thieves made away with virtually his entire showcase. I am stunned, and saddened. The seller is unmatched in terms of pricing and service, and he was just expanding to full 6 days a week service and regular hours, and he gets nailed with this. It sucks when things like this happen to the good guys.

This one came first, but the other one has more responses, so I ask that it be continued over there.
