MAJOR THEFT OF ERROR and VARIETY COINS

[wavysteps2003]

Unfortunately, it has happened again. Joe and Jean Gallo were returning home from the Tennessee State Numismatic Society show when their entire inventory was stolen from their truck. I am providing a short list of the coins that were taken, some of which were high end items, especially the 1969-S Lincoln cent with a doubled die obverse. If you hear that this coins are being offered for sale or are approached to buy these coins, please contact the authorities.

I thank you all for any co-operation that is given.

BJ, Has this list been posted on CCF? If not, I would recommend you do. If you are not a member, (yet), I can"'copy, and paste" it there.
Dick

[wavysteps2003]

Dick - I have covered Coin World NuMi News, CONECA forum Coin Community, LCR, Coppercoins, ECIE, however, if you can think of anyone else, please do.

Thanks,
BJ

[Dick]

BJ, you have covered just about all of them. I'll let Coin-talk know, a well.
Dick

[eagames]

When was the stuff taken?

[wavysteps2003]

It happened directly after the Tennessee State Numismatic Society show, while Joe and Jean were checking out of their hotel. From the sound of it, it was a professional job.

BJ Neff

[Dick]

BJ, does everyone who goes to one of these shows have to sign a "guest log"? I would think so, based on the risk involved, and the thefts that have occured at these shows. It would give a list of people to comntact, in the event of anything more than just a theft. I agree, it sure looks like a "pro",, and very possibly, an "inside job"!
I tyried to post the info on Coin-talk, but I don't have enough "whiskers" to post a new thread. I left a message with one of the members, to check out your post on CCF.
Dick

Another coin theft:

[Dick]

Ed, I read about that one, shortly after Bj's post of the other one.
Dick

[eagames]

Yet anther rip off from a coin show! They got busted later when trying to hawk the loot thanks to a dealer that found out they were stolen and tricked them into hanging around until the police got there

The good thing about currency is that it has serial numbers!
