Curiosity got the best of me and I looked at the case docket today.
Still no judgment file in the case. So things are still in limbo hanging around in the trial court. No appeal to the appellate court can be taken until a judgment is filed in the trial court.

Thanks
I think that there is no way they will get those coins back.

If the government wants something you have, they can take it from you.

Dim-witted jury buys government argument that these coins "must have" been stolen, and ignores substantial scholarly evidence that coins could have legally left the mint.
<< <i>Wow, it's been a long time....thanks for the update. I'm glad curiosity got the best of ya!
if memory serves, one of last couple updates (one with a lot of posts) stated something to the effect that the current judgment/appeals could possibly take years.

Coin Rarities Online
As I emphasized in my articles, with supporting statements by QDB and R. W. Julian, there are thousands of legitimate coins for which records were never entered in the cashier’s ledger in the way that U.S. attorneys now say was then required. Moreover, it is almost certain that U.S. Mint personnel at the Cashier’s window often did NOT record ‘coin for coin’ exchanges. The fact that there are not cashier’s records of 1933 Double Eagles having been ‘paid out’ does NOT demonstrate that any were stolen. The lack of such records now does not even suggest that any 1933 Double Eagles were stolen.
Though some 1933 Double Eagles were said to be “unaccounted for,” the total number of Double Eagles was unchanged. In relation to 1933 Double Eagles, no gold was missing.
Is there any evidence of thefts relating to 1933 Double Eagles? There were ‘coin for coin’ exchanges, which were considered legitimate by many employees of the U.S. Mint. My impression is that it was common for coin dealers, coin collectors, and tourists to engage in ‘coin for coin’ exchanges, often trading relatively common coins for scarcer coins, or old coins for new ones. According to QDB, U.S. Mint employees did so as well.

Who has the coins ? That's 90% of the law. Possession ! I think we should take up a collection and give the Langbords millions for keeping them safe all those years.
Simple enough. Case closed.

Should the Government return the 10 1933 double eagle gold coins to the Langbord family? Yes or no?
<< <i>Not that he would but could President Obama issue an executive order to return the coins to the Langbords? >>
Yes. But it will never happen.
Is this correct? Basically, a trial was held, and a decision was made that these coins are government property. Where does the constitution give the President the authority to give away government property?
