<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dougmeister, post: 3312659, member: 56842&quot;]Buddy of mine (who is marginally into old US coins, but mostly as a side effect of his bullion buying) forwarded me an email from govmint.com about a &quot;Secret Stash of 1880-S Morgans in Mint condition!&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p><i>Every once in a while, a few sealed Morgan bags from the Great Treasury Hoard may come to market, but the discovery of 16 authenticated 1,000-coin bags -- a total of 16,000 Morgan Silver Dollars -- was a rare find!</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i>Now you can own a highly-collectible 1880-S Morgan Silver Dollar from the now famous New York Bank Hoard!</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i>Originally purchased in 1964 by a collector working in the New York&#039;s financial district, the Morgans in these unopened Treasury bags hadn&#039;t seen the light of day in years!</i></p></blockquote><p><br /></p><p>I was thinking of telling my buddy:</p><p><br /></p><p>1) Remember that &quot;govmint.com&quot; is a private company NOT affiliated in any way with the U.S. Mint, the U.S. Government, or anything like that at all.</p><p><br /></p><p>2) Remember that they are in it for profit</p><p><br /></p><p>3) Realize that they are well known for over-hyping their stuff.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thoughts? Over-reacting? Wrong? Missing anything?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
