<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1050507, member: 66&quot;]No there was no theft, at least not by an individual.&nbsp; The State of Louisiana took over the mint and the bullion it contained for their own use and struck double eagles.&nbsp; Then when the state joined th Confederacy the new national government took over the mint and the bullion it contained and THEY struck double eagles.&nbsp; When the Confederacy&nbsp; closed down the mint in April they retained control of the bullion.&nbsp; All of the bullion accounts for all three controlling governments were maintained by the same person who reported the totals to both the controlling government and to the Federal government.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
