<p>[QUOTE=&quot;oyvnorth, post: 3714143, member: 107087&quot;]The story of these is not that they were ripped from the nazis but the nazis didn’t get to rip them from bank of Norway.</p><p>Just hours after Germany attacked Norway, a group of people managed to transfer the gold from bank of Norway onto boats and then smuggled them to Great Britain.</p><p>More info here: <a href="http://www.annassecretlegacynovel.com/gold_escape.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.annassecretlegacynovel.com/gold_escape.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.annassecretlegacynovel.com/gold_escape.html</a></p><p>This gold hoard was sold from the bank in 1988 to a Norwegian coin dealer. </p><p>It contained 100484 pcs of Nordic gold coins. </p><p>The lot was divided between 3 investors and stayed in their hands until around 2008-2010 when one of the investors sold his lot to Samlerhuset in Norway.</p><p>By coincidence the two other investors sold their parts to the same company shortly after. </p><p>Why this “title” has been added to the slab, I don’t know.</p><p>I know with certainty&nbsp; that it’s not the Samlerhuset company that asked for this. </p><p>Slabbing is not attractive to Norwegian collectors and 99% of the Norwegian collectors break the slabs with a hammer and slab inside a towel. </p><p>There’s been some interest in slabbing more recently but a serious collector in Norway won’t have his coins slabbed.</p><p>So why this text is printed I don’t know. </p><p>Funny story about a slabbing is the sale of Norway’s most expensive coin sold on auction in USA.
