I will keep an eye out for your friend Dan and I have my hopes up that such a recognizable card can be found. I would keep an eye out for sgc cases too, as it can be easy to send it for crossover to avoid a grade drop. Maybe contact sgc and bvg as a heads up with the cert.

As to all the James Bond expensive solutions that keep popping up in the thread, they seem pretty far fetched for the average card dealer. Let's be realistic here, for less than 75 bucks a piece someone could put two go-pros covering the entire table from behind and have film to turn over to the authorities. Have this at just 15-20% of tables and the culprits would likely turn up on several cams at different times as they walked to and from. Cake walk fix.

They may even get away, but could be id'ed easily after the fact.

That Clemente is worth as much as a nice used car. I can't imagine letting it out of my sight for even a minute.

A good idea for dealers will be to put these ultra high end cards inside a second plastic case, like they do at retail stores, either chained to the counter or with a tracking device/buzzer inside. A case that would be difficult to break without a large bolt cutter or saw. Hard to bring a tool like that to a card show.

I use clamps on my showcases, since the locks usually fail===Went to Lowes today and bought more clamps---I will have them on all my cases===although I can imagine where somebody still will try to open the showcases
