RE: Feds Snatch $80 Million in Rare Gold Coins from a Family Inheritance

in #gold7 years ago

A good example of why you need to know what is going on. I am sure that many of us hear know to keep any one from knowing that might report to the government. This kind of thing happens often.

Sort:  

Did the article say who narc'd? I must have missed that part

I don't think it did but just about anywhere that they may have tried to sell it has to report it today. Not long ago you could go to any gold or jewelry, or pawn shop without a problem. Today they all need to report. If they had known they would have sold it off the record.

Googled it... These are very rare and weren't supposed to be released to the public. Izzy shouldn't have had them in the first place... Whether theft or misappropriation. Th family narc'd on themselves as thats what a son or son in law requested before his death.

This ruling has gone back and fourth through the levels leaving the SCOTUS to hear and decide.

At the very least there should be a trade, but the value in rarity will be tricky. They are very well "Historical" and should be preserved for/as such one way or another.

Its a sad situation, sure the guy probably took it from the mint unlawfully but its been decades and statute of limitations is there for the reasoning time passes and witnesses can't be trusted, I read into this more and this happened after all witnesses were of course not with us in this world. So for all we know the President gave the guy the coins rightfully lol. Just insane how much this system blatantly takes from its people...and here is a case in point. Followed you for getting it lol. Thanks for the comment

Thank you, I guess I'll be see you around.

Anytime, your welcome here anytime....good conversations and good company are a must for me
