    SECRET SERVICE 1933 DOUBLE EAGLE INTERVIEWS

    An article by R.W. Julian in the October 1, 2002 issue of
    Numismatic News asserts that the recently auctioned 1933
    $20 gold piece is not unique, as many have suspected. In
    fact, he states, "in the early 1980s, for example, a friend --
    now deceased -- had one of these coins in his possession
    for a short time and, if the pedigree of the Farouk coin is
    correct (the coin remaining in Egypt until only a few years
    ago) then there is at least one specimen in some presently
    unknown collection." (p26, col 3).

    The article features (among much other documentation) a
    copy of a U.S. Secret Service report of an interview with
    Philadelphia coin dealer Stephen K. Nagy. The agents also
    interviewed B. Max Mehl and James Macallister, among
    others -- an interesting Freedom of Information Act
    discovery. What other finds await?
