[QUOTE="GoldFinger1969, post: 2138249, member: 73489"]Show me the proof that the coins were smuggled. The jurors made an educated guess. They were probably wrong. Do you think OJ didn't slit Goldman's and Nicole's throats because the jurors said they couldn't prove it ? I am very familiar with Mint exchange practices of the 1920's and 1930's. I have read Roger Burdette's well-documented proof that exchanges took place. For whatever reason, the jurors ignored that evidence or didn't believe it. Again, this practice didn't start in 1933. It went on for over a decade. [B][I]The standard practice was for wealthy collectors to pay $30-$40 for a $20 Double Eagle a few weeks/months before the official release.[/I][/B] That's a fact. It doesn't prove that th 1933's weren't illegally taken -- but it makes it LIKELY that the coins likely were gotten LEGALLY.[/QUOTE]
