Coin Show Safety

The world seems to get a little more dangerous every day. When attending a coin show these days, it’s smart to be a little cautious and avoid becoming a criminal’s next victim:
- Assume you are a likely target. Stay alert to people who are around you.
- Never leave any coins that you have brought or coin show purchases in your unattended vehicle.
- Know the location of security and emergency services offices.
- If you are a dealer, make sure to keep display cases locked.
- Use your phone to photograph/video suspicious persons.
- Remove any show credentials before leaving the building.
- If you are accosted, stay calm, and never chase after the thief.
