Yes she very well could be a "Rare Coin Expert” but that doesn't change the fact that she did a horrible and illegal thing to those 2 ladies. "collectible coins are not as safe as gold because they are gilt, not solid gold.” Even Assistant District Attorney Adam Kaufmann gave his opinion on the coin market saying.”Gold coins are not a great hedge in these economic times” Well, I guess Mr. Kaufmann knows best? I guess were being ripped off by the US mint. ;) Right? Hey dip stick! 24K = pure gold! All gold & silver coins' compositions are listed in guide books. There are a few foreign coins that are not 24K and all the fake ones tend to be less than 24K. Grrrr and that last one pisses me off, "Finally Minyanville.com took a more political angle on the story with their headline “Gold Coin Scammer Takes Page From Glenn Beck’s Playbook” Somehow I don’t think this story has anything to do with Glen Beck, Fox News, Goldline or NY Rep Wiener." I totally agree what does this thief stealing coins from their client have to do with the price of chili in china?
