But why would they talk about money and coin?
I have no idea. I would ask the bank, or go shopping for some other place to store your coins/currency.
Sounds like they don’t trust the security of their own bank, or customers who might break into other customer’s boxes.
They tell you not to store gold or currency because that cannot be covered in case of loss. In their eyes, your $10k in cash is safer deposited (because of FDIC coverage.)
I don’t agree with them—and if you wish to hold cash or pm’s, why would you leave them in a bank?
Will this also mean gold coins used as an investment vehicle?
It’s also a good idea to keep a handgun in the box in the event you’re forced to open it by someone other than the bank.
Drug dealers. Money in a safe deposit box is a good way to store money safely without the paper trail since it’s not actually going in the bank. Most of the wildly annoying rules in the world are the result of the WOD.
