The attached link has the Heritage press release and a photo of the coin. The initial comment in the thread is mistaken. The coin was stolen from a Brinks shipment.
This theft from a Brink's truck no less almost had to be an inside job....the 1870-CC $20 (especially in that grade of AU-58 finest known) is so special that no one would be able to sell it UNLESS they were selling it to a foreign agent or some other special buyer who would forever keep it secret.
I just hope that the thieve(s) don't melt it down when they realize that this a coin that cannot be pawned or sold so easily.
What a terrible thing this is! :S
