oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5045 Posts	Posted 03/14/2020 7:28 pm I have suggested that this post be moved to the numismatic crime section. More bad luck for Joe. he was robbed in toronto last year (or maybe the year before). However, I am not sure that I would let luggage worth $430,000 out of my sight. Report this Post to the Staff
Sharkman Valued Member United States 421 Posts	Posted 03/14/2020 9:17 pm Mind boggling. Must have been an easy stakeout. Someone had to know he checked his inventory and what bags looked like and coordinated with someone else in the arrival city. Insured? I don't know if this kind of inventory loss can be insured because I'm not a dealer, but I suspect any such insurance would be quite expensive and that some would choose to go without it. completely with oriole.
