<p>[QUOTE=&quot;swhuck, post: 782096, member: 21044&quot;]The 12 double eagles you refer to are those whose locations are known. Two of them are in the Smithsonian. The other 10 are currently the subject of a court fight, since the government does not feel that they were released legitimately. NGC has actually graded these coins.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Here&#039;s a link, a bit dated, about the court case: <a href="http://www.coinlink.com/News/us-coins/judge-rules-that-govt-improperly-seized-1933-st-gaudens-gold-coins/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinlink.com/News/us-coins/judge-rules-that-govt-improperly-seized-1933-st-gaudens-gold-coins/" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinlink.com/News/us-coins/judge-rules-that-govt-improperly-seized-1933-st-gaudens-gold-coins/</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I would be much less than surprised if more of these coins existed somewhere; they have been rumored for years. Of course, I do not personally know of any additional specimens. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>BTW, I&#039;ve seen the one &quot;collectible&quot; specimen and the two in the Smithsonian (or at least I assume so in the latter case; one of them was showing the reverse and could conceivably have been any Saint. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
