Priceless coin collection moved in lower Manhattan

The American Numismatic Society moved their collection of coins from one building to the other this past weekend. Glenn Collins writes:

“The idea was to make this as inconspicuous as possible,” said Ute Wartenberg Kagan, executive director of the American Numismatic Society. “It had to resemble a totally ordinary office move.”

Uh huh.  Ordinary office moves usually have a police escort.  Sure.

The Times also has a slideshow of the move.
