At the Philly ANA years ago Rare Coin Wholesalers came to our table with their checkbook. They were looking for a specific type coin and wanted all we had. We had about 4K worth, but if we had 50K worth he would have wrote check for that too. Can't remember what it was he was looking for though at the moment.

I don't think so


I've seen $200,000+ coins in dealer cases. Granted they sat by that locked case for the whole show...

Do people really buy $36k coins from a dealer table?


Not trying to beat a dead horse but I've not only held and seen 300-500K coins at shows but have seen transactions involving 100-200K in coins many times.

Having said that, here is the deal.
I would have a security system on the entire time recording. Camera pointed at every case. This is just what it's become unfortunately. Your not keeping criminal minds from coming to these shows. If your selling 36K bullion.. You can afford to do this.
Secondly, all cases will remained locked. I'd handle one customer at a time if that's what it took.
Dealers have to become much more security aware.

It's just the world we live in these days. There was a time you could go wait for your arriving party at the airport gate. Not an option these days as a result of the evil of some people.
