Message:: [QUOTE="Pepperoni, post: 693216, member: 5520"]That would be a no ! My granfather who came from Ireland with an engineering degree loved gold. He had spent from 1913 -1930 in Alaska designing bridges and roads. At on time he had a larger stash then he left. He took some of his gold and bought granite block to build a two story home on Emerald bay in the Lake Tahoe area.He left the home and the frontage property to my father and 18 gold coins in a picture album. My father was unaware of the coins as he never looked at the albumfrom 1955-2001 . His father and his mother divorced in Alaska in 1914 . She took my father back to the area near Santa Maria, Ca.. By the time my father did locate him he was in his mid eighties and had a previous stroke.My father lived from the lease of the property for the rest of his years. All the coins were good pieces , and will be left for my daughters. I have never had then graded but a friend who is a professional said they were solid high quality pieces.I think I put up a 1907D piece a few years ago. I would never pay the debt of America out of my pocket or would I expect any one else to do that. Corruption has ,and is the point of the sword. I will not help kill my self , my family or country.I only speak for my self. Pep[/QUOTE]
