    sounds like police suspect theft on the canadian silver but as of yet have not established there is a theft involved. Who knows, maybe the drug suspect collected silver. lol

    Might get confiscated as drug proceeds.
    Coming to a DEA auction near you shortly.

    It likely is a theft.... could be a collector or a shop... Either way, I hope it gets returned to the owner. It would be nice to see a good ending to a bad story. Cheers, RickO

    Kudos to the PD that found them.

    The longer I live the more convincing proofs I see of this truth, that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice is it possible for an empire to rise without His aid? Benjamin Franklin

    With govt recovery laws now, they can seize without proof on suspicion of criminal related activity or proceeds.
