Let's hope both sides agree to a settlement....the whole country wins.
Well, there's something called an APPEAL. Forget this CAFRA thing, if they appeal the original 2011 decision I think they can win. It all...
I have no bone in the fight, Eddie. But if you are familiar with Mint distribution policies of the 1920's and 1930's you would know it was quite...
Exactly...and if the Treasury didn't know about the Export License, who's to say they knew about the unofficial exchanges taking place prior to...
Beause the coins are worth millions to someone and also have historical significance. The best thing would be a settlement where they sell some...
But the Treasury Export letter was the Smoking Gun that it may NOT have been unlawfully smuggled out. We just don't know. Conder, the Treasury...
Roger has clammed up on that now, what specifically did he say on the PCGS or NGC message boards that he did NOT say in the trial that may have...
Joan Langbord worked for her father Izzy Switt for years....I'm sure she knew about the coins. Her sons, I'm not sure. I've met one of them,...
Would you buy a particular grade and/or GSA hoard ?
My point is I believe the Langbord's -- certainly Joan -- knew about the coins. No way somebody has 10 gold coins -- Saints or otherwise -- in a...
No, I think it proves that the coins would have been confiscated and unless the Langbord's could PROVE they did NOT steal them, the government...
I don't see the evidence on Page 16 as you state and I have to run out. But I am unaware that there is hard, physical or testimonial evidence...
Apparently, in the past, the government did NOT have the burden of proof. That's why the Silver Bullet in the Farook coin was the Export License...
The AVERAGE wage was HIGHER than the MEDIAN wage.
Exchange before the official release. Allowed for Mint employees, priority clients, and those given tours of the mint according to Roger Burdette.
But as has been shown, it was SOP for individuals to EXCHANGE older Saints for the newer ones before the official release. This is almost...
It's such a small number and I suspect all will be graded by NGC or PCGS.
I'm going by the actual IRS 1932 tables. Median vs. average...don't forget.
It's POSSIBLE that there is now a MARKET for 1933 Double Eagles. Before there wasn't. The coin wasn't collectable for anybody who wanted a...
That's what I'd guestimate. An increase in the supply of 1933 DE's should result in a drop from the $6.6 MM auction price (ex-commission)....
