[QUOTE="GoldFinger1969, post: 2135374, member: 73489"]I don't see the evidence on Page 16 as you state and I have to run out. But I am unaware that there is hard, physical or testimonial evidence that McGann stole DEs after the prohibition of April 5th.....but there is plenty of evidence that exchanges were done before official releases for special clients, Mint employees, and folks taking tours of the Philly Mint. Even if McGann did steal DE's, are they the same ones Switt got ? If Switt always got some new DEs early before the official release, it stands to reason he got some 1933 DE's the same way.
