Where the Eagles Fly

|

Teresa Langbord found what appeared to be 10 rare 1933 "double eagle" gold coins in a safe deposit box belonging to her late father. She and her family turned them over to the U.S. Mint to authenticate. But they say the mint has refused to give them back, claming the coins must have been stolen from the mint because they were never circulated. The family has filed suit seeking the return of the coins.
