Criminal mint.

[@lawrencecole6527]

The mint itself was not authorized to stamp coins and yet it did and those are still held in the hands of government related private collectors; it's because you're a john everyman and they knew you'd cave. Sorry pal they got ya.

The coin was illegal to own, and has always been illegal to own.
