<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Coinchemistry 2012, post: 2178718, member: 28107&quot;]No.&nbsp; The finding of fact for the Langbord coins applies only to the pieces before the court in <i>Langbord</i>; it says nothing about other coins, including other 1933 Double Eagles.&nbsp; &quot;If&quot; means that it is a question of fact and not purely a legal question.&nbsp; As such, it is not accurate to claim that the pieces are &quot;unambiguously illegal&quot; to own as it would depend on how the coin that was the subject of controversy was allegedly obtained and whether it could be proven in court.&nbsp; Going back to the Langbords, if some one was able to prove that they obtained a 1933 double eagle from the cashier, the owner of the newly discovered coins could (or at least should if the statutes are given their plain meaning) prevail in court.&nbsp; Ditto for the 1964-D Peace Dollar.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
