<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Saor Alba, post: 742025, member: 21607&quot;]An interesting side note, and a possible source of pre-1933 gold coins is the &quot;Moscow Gold&quot; story.&nbsp; The Republican held Banco de España sent most of their gold reserve to the USSR in 1937 during the Spanish Civil War for &quot;safekeeping&quot; but also to pay for arms being purchased by their government.&nbsp; Allegedly much of the gold was in the form of US gold coin that had been acquired by the Banco de España from about 1900 forward.&nbsp; Even the Soviet authorities thought the better of melting the gold down, still keeping it in coin form.&nbsp; Apparently some of this gold coin is believed to have been funnelled out of the USSR secretly beginning in the 1980&#039;s.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
