safe deposit box

[thing]

does anyone know which bank offers the least expensive safe deposit box?

And does any body know the measurements for a half dollar box that is 5 by 5 rolls stacked on top of each other And finally which safe deposit box size is the best fit?

Buy a safe, bolt it down.

Why keep your PM's in a bank? You can only access during business hours and its much easier to have your stash confiscated.

Buy a safe, bolt it down.

Walmart sells cheap ones for about $90-$200

You can buy a somewhat decent gun safe to have more space for $500-$1000

Look on craigslist for deals. I am in the market for another safe as mine is nearly full.

Wells Fargo Has good prices on Safe Deposit Boxes, if you are a member of the bank, I think it was around 60 bucks a year. But as mentioned, You could find you a nice Safe from Harbour Freight, and bolt it down.

What about fire damage. Seems the chance of fire in home is greater than theft.

I live in an apartment so i think my land lord would frown on bolting a safe down.

Plus I don't consider the government likely to take my silver coins. People who point to the gold confiscation order of Roosevelt usually omit that the order did NOT apply to coins of numismatic value. And since silver coins are not in general circulation all silver coins are of numismatic value.

an experienced thief can open a good safe in an hour or less, bolted down or not, let alone a less expensive one.

Oh also, what I was going to say that is more relevant toy our question is, if you have $5000 in a account with BofA here they will give you the small size SDB for free. Granted the interest is crap on that 5000 but if you consider the tradeoff of $50-100 for a SDB annually it is a fair trade.

You could likely still do it, with a gun safe that bolts to a wall stud. You just have to patch the drywall when you are done. If you were there more than 2 years, they will have to repaint anyways so you wont have to worry about that. always good to get permission first anyways

Any safe can be broken into given enough time, its meant to deter the criminal not stop them completely. The more time you sit working on it, the more likely you are to get caught. Most criminals who B&E go for the easy loot and take off.

A small SDB would not be enough for anyone who does more then few boxes a week and in a year they would outgrow it. Also leaving $5,000 in the bank isnt allowing your money to work for you. All you are doing is losing value each year due to inflation and low interest rates. A net loss to you so the bank can make money, no thanks.
