Theft of $150,000 worth of collector coins
August 07, 2011
In July of 2011 the Marathon County Sheriff’s Department took a report of the theft of a large amount of collector coins valued at over $100,000. The coins were hidden in a residence and may have been taken sometime between July 2010 and July 2011.
There were approximately 80 coins stolen that included various denominations of gold Indian coins, $20 gold Liberty coins, $25 gold American Eagle coins, $1 silver American Eagle coins, and others. Most of the coins were minted in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s although there are some that are as new as 2009. These coins are made of real gold and silver and are worth much more than their denominations.
The coins were professionally graded and individually encased in plastic protective cases. Written on each case is information about the coin it contains including the condition and grade. The coins cannot be removed from the cases without damaging the cases. Removal would reduce their value since the case indicates proof of their authenticity, condition, and grade.
Below are stock photos of similar coins.
