Some people just can’t keep their mouths shut.........They’re gonna regret that publicity.
They found it last April apparently and have had PCGS and a guy in Tiburon going over them and grading them.
Smart would have been to filter them through PCGS a few at a time and sell them as needed. That would have negated the neat provenance of them though.
I’d assume they have the legal scene pretty tight, You can really get taken to the cleaners by douchebags if you just own up to a find like this, with people filing claims on it and never winning, but evaporating the finds in legal fees.
How could they get full numismatic value if they didn’t go through a public sale?
