Having a decoy safe, that's a really good thing to have, I have always had one, and two years ago I had my house broken into, he stole my decoy and pretty much wasn't worried about anything else, the next day on the news, there was a guy that got arrested at Walmart for trying to pay for his things with fake hundred dollars bills, he got 20 years in federal prison for that, all I can say is, karma is great.

Yes people way overestimate break ins and are almost obsessed with this idea people know they have gold and silver and are after it. Unless you live in a bad area or a city, you're probably highly unlikely to ever encounter any danger from burglary. A bolted or well hidden safe and a something that goes pew pew for insurance is all you need. Anyone saying you need anything else or having to go to all these extra lengths are just paranoid.

Nobody ever mentions about having a German Shepherd as a first layer, or line, of defense. Once a thief hears a German Shepherd's bark, they might think twice about breaking into your home. German Shepherds are very intelligent, so they are easily taught. And protecting the home and family is a natural thing for a German Shepherd. My German Shepherd is by far, the best friend I will ever have.

I'm a police officer with four years on patrol in a major city. Every single residential burglary I've worked was a smash a grab, in fact they oftentimes miss very valuable things in plain sight. My mother in law's house was broken into several years ago and they went straight to her bedroom closet. They stole a considerable amount of jewelry but they completely missed all of the silverware displayed in the china hutch and even cash set out on top of the kitchen countertop that was set for the maid.

Statistically, I agree with you. However, thieves are getting more brazen. My city has had thieves park moving trucks in front of the house and taking everything. Playing it off like they're movers. Home invasions as well, and took their time searching home while victim was held against their will. My bet is still on hiding somewhere very out of the way and not obvious.

Indeed. for the average person with no indication of excessive wealth, burglars are looking for items of high value which can be quickly converted to cash - jewelry, computers, guns, etc. Time is a big factor. Thieves want to get in and out. High wealth individuals have other issues. Their first defense is to keep their mouths shut. Never discuss personal wealth of a liquid nature, value of collectables, etc. Spread items and collections of valuables around. Project a low key lifestyle. Be aware of associations. Some people love to talk and should never be told anything - in fact, personal finances should never be discussed with anyone. Also, remember that professional theives have likely targeted their victims, done research, and know what they are coming for. They have metal detectors and will quickly scan walls and floors for heavy metal objections such as hidden safes. They have possibly contacted domestic servants who have knowledge of where valuable items are stored and make have been enticed into talking too much. Disgruntled friends, family, associates likely know more than you might imagine. Re-assess storage plans and locations when changes in relationships warrant. Think out of the box. With metal detectors being so prevalent and small in size, consider long term storage of pm's in sealed pvc pipes painted to look like old school plumbing and running along side similar pipes. With newer homes, this will be hard to since most new plumbing is pvc and a metal signal would be a dead give away. This trick is for long term storage since proper placement of decoy plumbing would not allow easy retrieval. With bullion, a percentage of the holdings (possibly 25%) could be left with trusted friends/relatives. This is more of a back-up against total loss at one location. These arrangements are termed bailments and should be documented in writing in the event of the death of the bailee (keeper of the items). Finally, don't overlook the value of insurance. Review homeowner policies for coverage. Consider special policies for unique items. Of all the suggestions mentioned in the vid, I like the decoy safe most of all. A pro can make off with a bolted down gun safe if s/he has reason to believe it will be worth their while. Get a serious decoy safe. Find a big, old school, serious looking safe that looks like it came from a jewelry store or old retail location. The decoy needs to be full of bricks to appear full if a thief tried to move it. If it moves too lightly, it will be seen as the decoy. Just think out of the box and remember that loose lips sink ships. I personally like the trunk of my beat up old car that barely runs and stays in my garage. No one would ever look there. It helps to have a decaying old body in it. The smell discourages the worst sorts of criminals (a dead rat is equal to a deal human in terms of stench and easier to replace from time to time.). Never overlook hiding in plain sight. Low end thieves know little about coins collections. Create some massive bogus collections with current change - quarters, nickels, dimes and put them in fancy folders. Leave then in a reasonably obvious location - designed for the thief to find. They will end up with a lot of weight and little value and leave quickly.

I was a cop for 32 years in the 7th largest city in the United States. Investigated 1000’s of residential burglaries. Crook always went into the master bedroom or office (if you have one) never stole anything out of a garage except the family car to haul away all the smalls and TV or other items they took. Only saw one attempt to bust open a gun/jewelers size safe. Weren’t successful. Small safes unbolted down got taken easily. Easy to carry. Monitored Alarms don’t work. Make your alarm ring loudly and audible to draw attention to themselves. They’ll leave sooner. Plus loud alarms hurt the ears. Natural to want to get away from that piercing sound. Crooks typically in and out in minutes. Usually have a back pack and want smalls like jewelry, iPhones, laptops.

Desiccant Horror Story: A year after my dad's death 40 years ago, I opened his stand-alone safe in the basement. He was a coin and stamp collector, not a stacker, and even had columns in both coin and stamp magazines, so had a variety of mint stamps, proof sets, medieval and ancient coins, etc. He had placed a can of desiccant about the size of a PB jar in the safe. It attracted moisture, then overflowed and continued to do so, flooding the safe and rusting out the floor of the safe. Sheets of stamps were stuck together, proof set containers were moldy and all the silver coins were now junk silver. The ancient and medieval coins were fine. I did not inherit my dad's love of coinage (or else I wouldn't have commented here). If somebody breaks into my house they will find motorcycles and tools. I just sought out this video so I could caution folks against making this same mistake. Monitor your storage environment and school your heirs on how to handle your collection.

My dad showed me a great way to store stuff, which includes burying the containers. Said containers were at least 4" inner diameter, up to 6" PVC pipes, made to your length of preference (i suggest 2' or less, otherwise it gets really heavy), with one side having a pvc cap in conjunction w/pvc glue, and the other side was a pvc screw cap that you can use a crescent wrench to twist the square part open. Never saw any signs of degradation or moisture, when unearthed after years (decades) of being buried. Works for me!

You need to let one trusted family member know your hiding spot. My grandpa hid his money in his basement. After he died It took my dad and his brother a long time to figure out where the money because two of the basement walls were dirt below the first four feet of cinderblock. The question still remains whether or not they located it all before selling grandpa’s house. Also, a year or so after my friend’s husband died she discovered that her husband had hidden $18,000 of silver in his toolbox in the shed.

I store some of my stack at home because I have a part insured and a part I'll take the risk because it is stored in multiple layers what cost us a day to get it out but the problem is gold. Gold is easy to hide. A bar here and there but if they are found you lost a lot. So a special bullion storage facility where you pay 0,5% yearly I think its better because I stack for the economic collapse not for 30-50 years than it will become too expensive. That company don't lend out anything 3very ounce you store is accessible when you want and they have no financial risk and maybe the little financial risks are insured. But what do you do with displayed special coins like special series of coins, proof coins some coins very expensive but they are displayed so a thirf find them easy and with those high value coins you can lose a lot pretty fast.

Yep, this was the biggest surprise to me when I started collecting. By storing it at home, I felt like a target and would have to check on it occasionally. Eventually, my wife divorced me with no legitimate cause and when we were separated and I came back to the house to get my stuff, I happened to show up when she was leaving and she held her coat tight which looked suspicious so I opened her coat and she sure enough was taking it so good luck trusting your wife. As you say, there are many considerations that come along with collecting precious metals like defending it. Another one is do you have someone you could go to and exchange it for cash or some other currency if the SHTF and we have to turn it in and its made illegal? Not to mention, that I assume our phones and devices have mics that can produce 3D images just from multiple microphones so its possible that these computers and the intel agencies already know where we keep our stuff. Its hard to tell what is worth considering anymore and eventually we just have to do our best and be happy with it, I suppose. On the other hand, I like how thinking about how stuff like this really works helps you see other options as just as valuable as precious metals like crypto so you can access funds anywhere as well as what is the value of our skills or networking with like minded neighbors to form a mutual defense network. Or imagine the cabal that runs the militaries of all nations. They have defenses that have layers like both trusting agents to stand guard at a mint but then also being able to hack the security systems they create so their own defense systems don't get in the way of corruption.

I know of a man and his daughter who owned a hardware store for years. For some reason every time someone paid with a $ 20 bill, the $20 bill did not go in the cash register, but rather his pocket. The daughter did not know the ultimate destination of these bills, until years later, after the man died. She went to clean his house to settle the estate and opened a chest freezer. To her amazement, there were hundreds of $20 bills in the chest freezer.

The best way to store gold and silver open and obvious, in multiple locations. Don't be a fool about it open obvious doesn't mean leave it laying on the counter or in plain sight. Here's a tip use a router & router out a thin layer of wood cut to precise measurements of coins bars of your choice on back of picture frame you could cover it or put glass over at like the front and you can turn around and admire both sides. Another tip is to take a small portion of a back of a drawer and install wooden insert you have yourself a few inches by the widht of the drawer to hide things (perfect for tubes of coins or etc.).

Pro Tip: when the contractors are going to be in the same place as the safe. Remove the precious metal to a temporary hiding spot and fill the safe with random paperwork stuff ( it should have important paperwork already ) and maybe a cheap gun ( to add believability). Leave the safe open. There now they know you have a safe and that there's nothing in it.

This seems like a good idea for most people, particularly if you collection is on the smaller side. Almost every thief is desperate and trying to work quickly, those are your biggest advantages imo. Obviously a thief won't take the trouble to break in and then leave without taking valuables they have found, but once they think they've found your stash they aren't likely to risk getting caught with it in order to keep looking. This would be less effective if you are well known for stacking large amounts and were being specifically targeted, but unless you are also a silver youtuber or maybe a well known criminal you're probably pretty unlikely to be on any body's radar. If you were specifically targeted by professionals like you live in the movies you'd probably want to have a more extreme kind of plan in mind. A moat of crocodiles is a good deterrent to even the most experienced of burgalars. You'd probably want to invest in some kind of mission impossible style laser grids and some giant buzz saws that pop out of your decoy vault and leave the would be thief caught red stumped. Personally I think its only fair to bury it somewhere very remote and make maps with cryptic clues as to how to find it in case you die before you get a chance to do anything fun with it. Ideally your bravest and most cunning ancestor will discover your journal and use your savings to buy back the family farm from the bank wheh they're about to forclose.

You mentioned the very popular and inexpensive camera systems. They can be great because they store high resolution audio and video. Most will push a text notification to your smart phone within seconds of being activated. You can then access the live pictures from your cameras through the app on the phone and see what is going on at home. If you are traveling any distance from home it is critical that you get the direct dial number to your local (home) 911 call center and save it as a favorite or speed dial on your smart phone. If you dial 911 away from home you will only get the 911 center near where you are at and it will be a waste a lot of time.

Ive been in silver & gold bullion since about 2004 and will never let any of mine out of my own possession. There are steps (gradual steps) that need to be taken to safeguard your bullion such as the investment into a high grade, probably larger sized jewelers safe secured to the foundation of your placement. I preferred dial/ non-electric. An alarm system and /or trained dogs and of course a well trained person in Second Amendment affairs is also recommended. If people allow their bullion to be stored elsewhere there is unforeseeable circumstances that can cause you to never see your bullion ever again. I wont take that risk. I will own all my risk myself. Other options is a "treasure map" (cashe). Gold & silver is able to be buried in an ammo can or the like and placed in the ground. Just make sure you use something other than the surroundings to know where you put it. Sights change season to season and wont look the same in a few years or longer.
