These coins were never monitized therefore they are not legal tender, they are still the property of the US Treasury/US Mint. The same could be said about the 1913 V Nickel, but those were an illegal strike not authorized by the mint.

In all fairness you have to admit the one they, “monetized” and my quotes are purposeful, was not a rational decision to monetize it...it was at best random or publicity stunt. These 10 were obtained the same way the other ones were. Seizing is one thing, seizing without ANY compensation is another. It’s akin to taking your house to put in a highway and not giving you the fair value.
