Physical safety of a certificate of deposit is important but not as important of as the safety of the money we have deposited with the bank.

Safety of the money deposited in a certificate of deposit is directly linked to the financial stability of the bank in which you have opened it. Let us say you have deposited $1000 in a bank and it goes bankrupt, even if you have safeguarded the certificate in your home, it is worthless because the bank has gone bust. On the contrary, if you lose the certificate, you can always get a duplicate from the bank.
