“The 1933 Saint-Gaudens double eagle coin was originally valued at $20, but sold for as much as $7.5 million at a Sotheby’s auction in 2002, according to Courthouse News.
After President Theodore Roosevelt had the U.S. abandon the gold standard, most of the 445,500 double eagles that the Philadelphia Mint had struck were melted into gold bars.”
?????????????????????
It was that damn Communist FDR, not Teddy Roosevelt who stole the people's gold coins!!!!!!!

I'm so glad that today's journalists have such a firm grasp on American history.
Too many "tell me how you feel" assignments in journalism classes, I guess.
