Are they still legal to possess? I know the Feds busted up the manufacturing ring, but are any still floating around eBay and such?

There will be a lot of up and down fluctuation between now and when he announces as a third party candidate subsequent to losing badly in the primaries.

I dunno, didn't he say he wasn't going to run as an Indy? Maybe he will though. I'm guessing the value would go down if he loses in the primaries....

They aren't illegal to possess. That would be absurd. They seized the assets of the organization that produced them in anticipation of legal action against the principles.
But, since only 3,500 of the Ron Paul copper dollars made it out before the raid, which netted several tens of thousands of examples, it doesn't seem likely that the person you had contact with actually possessed 100 of them. Perhaps he/she was anticipating delivery.

Look here
Hmm, nope, now that I've looked at eBay, I found an example-the contact showed me a roll just like this (only the paper was much darker blue). Claimed he had 3 more rolls, unseen. But anyway, I guess that chance is now gone.
This is the sort of thing that gets me to thinking though. I wonder if the manufacturers intentionally provoked the feds and hoarded away a stash of their coins to immediately sell on eBay after the raid. Not saying it's so, but spend enough time on the internet and I guess the conspiracy theories will start to rub off on you if not careful.

Well I've been careful about expressing my political views around these parts, but I won't say I disagree with you.
This is an ugly coin that is not worth melt except for current news.
<< <i>Weren't there Ron Paul gold coins as well? >>
Yes.
<< <i>I'm guessing those are just gold-plated? >>
Nope, 1 ounce .999 fine gold. They were selling for up to $5000 after the raid.

Then came the raid and confiscation.
casting long shadows. Over 20 million bucks in
collections and circulation along with paper.

I know that socialists, neocons and other dirtbags really hate some of these guys and have even protested a few of them. One was taking shots at Lew Rockwell on Bill Moyers show and talking about the failure of "capiltalism" ( was specifically talking about how foreign aid handouts have failed. Typical ignorant lowlife who can't differentiate socialism from freedom )

Ron Paul is destined to have "Former Presidential Candidate" in his resume, and Von NutHouse is destined for the Federal Penitentiary at Terre Haute IN.
