Desperate Thief

The following is an example of what can happen at any time when a person is so desperate that they will try to grab a tray of coins by breaking a window or show case for your material.... Cameras are a good resource for catching these people for the police to arrest....

Also always have pictures of your coins in your cases each morning just walk around for 5 minutes with you smart phone and make a quick video of what is there.... You need a record....
