Just read the CoinWorld article- what the heck?

I heard the story, or A story of him allegedly stealing a coin at a major show. I don't have my CoinWorld for the printed story as of yet though.

CW reported that he's accused of stealing coins worth $20K combined from two different dealers at two different Long Beach shows.

This was brought up a few Long Beach shows ago.

Are we talking about Brett Bogus?

I always thought I'd change my name if I was selling stuff and had that name.

Kinda like a car salesman named Rob Cheatham.

<< <i>Kinda like a car salesman named Rob Cheatham. >>

From the law firm Dewey, Cheatham and Howe?

I figured it was only a matter of time before that name got him in trouble.

I was very surprised to see him in this kind of trouble over 20K worth of coins. Seems like pocket change compared to the coins he sells. Did'nt he have a complete collection of $20 libs for sale a while back in high grade?

A old thread indeed but darktone question needs answering:

<< <i>Did'nt he have a complete collection of $20 libs for sale a while back in high grade? >>

Yes he did. He (and his father) sold the set several years ago. I remembered remarking that he sold out a few years too soon.

It's all true. Watch for the dealer in question to be extradited to California soon.
