I saw the following coins today:
1933 $20
1804 Dollar
Original Plaster Cast of Lincoln Cent Obverse by VDB
Superb Gem Proof 1921 Peace Dollar
Choice Proof Original Confederate Half Dollar
(Edited to say I almost forgot the Brasher Doubloon!)
Where was I? Not just the city. Whose building? It's a shame that this really is numismatic trivia. Cryin' shame.

Don't laugh! Do you know how many coins I can get upgraded after I report back to HRH?

You were right until you said it was on William Street. It's on Liberty Street. But I guess you still win.

Beat me to it, Seth. I went there and took the tour down to the gold vault after seeing the coin exhibit at the Fed. According to the guide, the subway is not at the same level as the gold vault, so a little poetic license for the movie.
