I don't know if I understand an earlier statement the the Green Box(es) they found were 2004? I thought that they were from 2019. Anyway, I don't know how you can lose Green Boxes and suddenly find them. Did someone "accidently" take them home and then got honest and brought them back. Were they in Philadelphia? If so, someone wasn't counting inventory. I was an auditor for the State of North Carolina and I know there has to be a checks and balances on their inventory. Federal Auditors as well as the Mint should be fired for letting that many silver coins get "lost". Take a count of how many coins are in a green box times the number of green boxes and the value of all of those coins. It should be easy to figure out how much money was misappropriated. Someone should be sitting in Rikers Island Prison on that one.
I didn't see anywhere where anyone claimed that they (2004 ASEs) were suddenly found after 15 years in someone's closet. Somebody, Mike Mezack for instance, bought a Monster Box back in ought four and just recently broke into it and had ANACS certify some/most of the coins, and sold them off at good premium.
LOL! You guys are great! Hey! I'm waiting for a rare, "limited edition" special color "Monster Box" to come out "for serious collectors only." Maybe a patriotic theme or something different from the "green" to REALLY stash away in the closet to get rich on in a few years. Maybe I'll sell my stocks and buy 10 of these rare, one-year-only, limited edition Monster boxes. Yeah! Already counting my profits!
Do you really have to keep them in a pair of silver drawers and carry a wooden stake...Zoid Meister is "on to something"....!
So Monster Box™ is actually a registered trademark, but Monster Box Collection™ isn't. These should be sent back to ANACS as mechanical errors and relabeled Monster Box™ Collection.
