Interesting as this post is. I believe it lacks some basic information.

I tried to google this case number and nothing came up.

Could you tell us what was stolen? eg: amount, s/n, denominations.

Who, What, Where, When and Why always helps.

Kind regards

Steiner

Thanks for your reply Stolen money. Sorry I missed you attachment.

I will pass this onto a couple of dealers I know here in the Vancouver region. Hopefully we will see some action of this.

Very sorry for your loss.

Kind Regards

With the ongoing Police investigation, I will not be able to answer most questions on here in public to people I do not know.


They were breaking into the safe for something else and scored with my collection.

We have been working on it for 29 years.

I was sent a list to CAND. I cannot verify it as being anything beyond a hoax.

Yes, I sent an email to email@cand.org at 11:51 am today.



Call the RCMP (1.250.489.3471 with #2008-4992 case file, Officer Pollack )

This is not a hoax.

I am trying to get my collection back.

Sorry to hear about this. The little @#!%$^& has no moral and is just going to send your collection as change.

I sent a PM to rscoins.

It has been on the local radio and in the Cranbrook Daily Townsman newspaper, crimestopper section.

If someone can't verify this, they are not trying too hard.

That's quite a list there. I hope you will find it. I don't think it can be spent without it being noticed.
At least you have the serial numbers cause you'll never know when they will turn up. I've seen notes selling at flea markets, antique & collectible stores, garage sales, Craig's list, and a Police Recovered goods auctions aside from the usual my EBay,  shows, club, and my favorite local go-to places.

Good Luck there I'll keep my eyes peeled

Wow

Bummer!

If we all look though, maybe we can get some of these notes back to their owner.

Insurance?

You mentioned that they cut your safe open. What did they use to cut it open?

I am not at liberty to answer that.

------------------------

Thank you all for your comments. I have come to the fact that I personally will not see these again, but SOMEONE will.

BC24C - 1937 UNC 10's #127, 128 and 129 WILL show up some where.

Unless I tell collectors like you, you will not know that those nice bills are hot.

Could take 6 months or 6 years. They will surface somewhere.

Thank you.

There was a major burglary at a coin store in Ottawa two years ago. The coin store was located in a small strip mall next to a fast food outlet. The burglars came in through the roof just after midnight, they noticed that the wall between the fast food shop and the coin store was merely dry wall (not concrete like on the other side of the coin store), they hacked through the dry wall in no time and, fortuitously for them, the coin store safes were right next to the hole in the dry wall. They cut into the backs of the two safes using acetylene torches and extracted the loot. It seems they spent about two hours doing the dirty deed. The open area of the coin store was protected by alarms but the safes were not ...........

" Buy the very best notes that you can afford and keep them for at least 10 years. " (Richard D. Lockwood, private communication, 1978).
