At the time, ... the Mint declared that it would not monetize or sell future 1933 double eagles that might be recovered.

We are here to celebrate your coin. It's a work of art. You should be proud of it.

These Double Eagles were never lawfully issued, but instead, were taken from the United States Mint at Philadelphia in an unlawful manner more than 70 years ago. They are, and always have been, public property belonging to the United States. We are pleased that these 10 Double Eagles have been recovered.

It's a beautiful coin. It is a work of art, and you should be very proud of it. Today, Nevada becomes a historic part of U.S. coinage.

They are, and always have been, public property belonging to the United States.

The image of a forward-looking Jefferson is a fitting tribute to that vision.
