How do you keep your coins "safe"?

Lemme see, I have hidden my *aaa* coin under this pile of books, the other *bbb* coin under that pile, etc. Sure thing, a robber will not be able to find ALL of the coins easily.

 

Wait a sec, isn't that a fire hazard?!

I keep my valuable coins in my safe at home. Thing has to weigh at least 500+lbs. It took three linemen plus myself to carry it downstairs. I know that thing won't be stolen any time soon

Confirmed bachelor pad?

 

Oh, please tell me that is really your house!!!

 

I don't feel so bad about my 'extra' room. (You know the type, walk in, find a flat space, lay something down on it, rinse, repeat, etc.)

I sleep with my coins and keep a 9 mm under the pillow

Big fireproof gun safe for me.  Surrounded by motion detectors as well. 

I've got the wall mounted safe with my cabinet inside. The cabinet itself sits on pressure pads with a motion detector by the safe outside.

...yeah, the big home safe & the .40 caliber...that should do it!

I sent mine to a parallel dimension for safe keeping.

You guys all crack me up!!!

Wow great ideas all! Personally I use a combination of safe and scatter. I can really relate to the comment about finding something 5 years later... In fact I found a medal recently that has been on my buy list for 2 years. Turns out I bought it about 7 years ago.

Bet that was a wonderful surprise!

[Ætheling]

There's nothing nicer than that you know Elverno!

It comes as no surprise that i was born in the year of the rat. And since rats are of course the prey of cats... that explains why i can seemingly argue two sides of one argument all in one argument and somehow make it make sense. Then i have those days when i contradict myself so much i make no sense whatsoever... but i'm not fussy. I'm loquacious.

[elverno]

Yeah finding a medal like that is like finding money in your pants pocket. I had bought it in a lot with some others I was after and it slipped my Swiss cheese memory that I had it. And of course I put it someplace where I'd remember it!

A lot of good info provided. My security system is the sign on the front door:

 

1. I own a gun.

2. I own a shovel.

3. I own 10 acres.

4. NO ONE will miss your sorry ass.

 

Then, again, no one knows I even have a coin collection.

What about just using a safe at home for fire protection. It can easily be hid here at my place. hell i can't even see the floor in this room. My next purchase is a fire/water proof safe cause lets face it shit happens and that is a fair chunk of change i got masked as a collection.

[daggit]

Ashamed, but I haven't taken any precautions. I have an alarm and bars on the windows and a strobe light that will flash out front as the beggers run down the driveway. The coins however are strewn about the house.
