[QUOTE="10gary22, post: 974443, member: 23626"]Hey guys, I was surfing again early this morning an stumbled on some posts where there were Jefferson Nickles stamped on washers. Of course the discussion went on about a washer accidentally being stamped or a mint worker making them, etc. Got me to wondering what the legal implications are with something like that ? I mean, these were government property at one time right and NIFC nor Sold to Collectors, so is there theft involved ? And if they were made on government owned washers, isn't that theft too ? Someone had commented that it looked like a Mint employee was insuring his retirement. In an Orange Jumpsuit ? I don't know the laws here, but have a feeling that these could be confiscated by the Feds ? Can you ever own them ? Curious about it. gary[/QUOTE]
