It’s hard to believe they made this big public announcement, went to a coin dealer, etc.
If they had sold one coin at a time, said they were family heirlooms,etc. They could have become wealthy and not have all this hanging over their heads. Too late for that now.
Yep, I heard that. For future reference: don’t tell anybody, they’re old family heirlooms, sell only 1-2 coins at a time for cash, go to different dealers. And go to a real dealer who will give you a square deal, not some skiffy pawn shop that’s nothing more than a fence for crackheads.
