That certainly will focus the investigation.....I hope it is published when the culprit is apprehended. Cheers, RickO
Those are probably difficult to get rid of by the crooks. Wonder if they were personal thefts from auction lots shipped?
Glad to see the USPS OIG is involved. They will get the thief if it was an inside job.
Governments can print currency. Only the people can print faith in it — and they’re running low on ink.
The crooks appear to be going after heavy packages which they think may contain gold coins.
it makes me wonder what we don't hear about a lot of times, just saying
About 48+ World coins and a die.
Wonder if the culprit knows what s/he got, maybe thinking gold.
Yup, I agree !!! :'(
