Who says the gold coins were valuable?

I read this story a few days ago on another forum. The rightful owner claims the coins were worth $40,000.

Sure they were. At least he’s hoping to collect that from his insurance company.

But to a pawn shop? Its just scrap metal.

I have been a coin collector for a long time. I have NEVER run across a gold coin that was not worth MORE than the gold it contained. Never. And with this melt it was probably dozens of coins. Some were probably worth 5x their gold value. Silver coins are different. Who says the gold coins were valuable?

precisely and it's just that, the daughter/father needs to talk.
LEOs/DAs are "involved"
..the Richardsons are "clean" on this.
hopefully, "Dirty" Reid won't hear of this and demand his "share".
