[QUOTE="GoldFinger1969, post: 4486124, member: 73489"][B][SIZE=5][COLOR=#0000ff]Saint-Gaudens Hoards: [/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] I had a back-and-forth with Roger B. on an NGC thread dedicated to his new book on Saints. At the end of the book, he has a fascinating table ([B][I]see below[/I][/B]) that shows that it is POSSIBLE that millions of Saints are still out there, probably in bank vaults somewhere (unless a few wealthy Redfield-like folks have them). I actually disagreed with his math -- I think more coins were melted domestically than in his table -- but it is NOT definitive that they aren't out there, though the fact that we haven't had any major ones in decades sort of discounts the possibility. Still...one could hope. [ATTACH=full]1113598[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
