That is bizarre indeed. Those Limey's have the most awsome potential for incredible finds as it is and now they've gone and found what most of us in the new world would consider an impossible find. They'd have found me layin' in the hold they were found in. What a rush that must have been.

I'd have probably thought they were the chocolate ones we hang on the Christmas tree and left them there.

Right on par. Most of our gold coins..................especially in the late 1800's and early 1900's..............and especially Double Eagles..................were used for international transactions...........and usually bank-to-bank.
