<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 71916, member: 3011&quot;]sjnebay - coins are NOT the property of the government.&nbsp; I think you would be hard-pressed to come up with the statute verifying that.&nbsp; The government cannot take property as their own of any kind without compensating the owner.&nbsp; Maybe the Mint will win their court battle, but they do have a consititutional obligation to comply with the legal system and go to court over the matter.&nbsp; It just isn&#039;t their decision to make.&nbsp; I know Roosevelt pulled a fast one while Congress was asleep, but it probably won&#039;t be so easy the next time.&nbsp; All I can suggest is read the Constitution.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, you are correct that this is way off topic.&nbsp; I&#039;ll just end by warning any readers not to believe this sort of thing without checking it out.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
