Gangster and Bootlegger Peace Dollar Hoard
In the 1920's a new car cost $290, a new suit cost $15.85 and a pack of
cigarettes cost a $.10. However, if you were a bootlegger or a bank robber,
paying these outrageous prices was easy—you just reached into your canvas

In the 1920's a new car cost $290, a new suit cost $15.85 and a pack of
cigarettes cost a $.10. However, if you were a bootlegger or a bank robber,
paying these outrageous prices was easy—you just reached into your canvas
sack of 1,000 Peace Silver Dollars to pay for everything!
Well, not all of these big silver coins were spent. Recently we were called
in to make an offer on a hoard of Peace Silver Dollars from an estate. Our
Senior Coin Buyer was led into a unlocked room in a rickety, old, wooden
house and as he entered, a family member explained that this is where his
grandfather kept his "Bank Robbers Millions" silver collection.
It seemed a tall tale, but what our Coin Buyer found led us to believe the
story could have a grain of truth to it.
You see, in the room we found a group of heavy canvas sacks. Inside each
sack was a thousand Peace Silver Dollars, coins dated from 1922 to 1926.
Every coin in the hoard was in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and appeared
that they had been stored in these original bank bags for several decades.
Our buyer knew that these Peace Silver Dollars were delivered to banks in
these very same canvas bags and that every sack in this hoard had a bank's
name printed in bold black letters on it.
In addition, all the bank names on the sacks were from areas where bank
robbers and bootleggers plied their trade at the time when the coins were
issued. Such notorious bootlegger's were Al Capone from Chicago,
Dillinger's from Indiana and one from northern Wisconsin where
Dillinger's "treasure" is said to be buried. Could it be?
The grandfather's tale may have more substance than the family had
realized!
Just think of the history. These 1,000 coin bags of Peace Silver Dollars
could have been snatched from banks or collected in payment for bootleg
whiskey!
Better yet, our Coin Buyer was able to cut a fantastic deal on this hoard
and are passing the savings on to you.
Today, we are offering you these coins at a savings of 47% compared to what
our competitors sell them for.
Act Now, and get a "steal" on these coins!
