<p>[QUOTE="Lawtoad, post: 1218964, member: 31685"]Conder- I agree that there is the issue of the possibility of an exchange at the cashier's window and that the Coinage Act of 1873 may have allowed for release of coins without them being issued for circulation. It indeed will be left to the Treasury Dept to establish that the coins left unlawfully. This in fact was part of the argument in the legal case surrounding the Fenton coin proceedings that settled in 2001. Since that case settled without any interpretation of the statutory and factual issues it will be enlightening if this case actually goes to trial. The attorney who represented Fenton represents the Langbord family in this action, and I'm betting any trial outcome could set the tone for the coin collecting hobby. Thank you for your comments, I reviewed my post and it sounded a bit harsher than I intended. If the case goes well for the family there may be even more 1933's appear.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
