Got mine today. Liked the coin, was shocked that it was shipped 10 envelopes in a larger padded envelope. The smaller envelopes were somewhat bent.

Smallness I will certainly try but mine looks exactly like yours. What is your sequence number they gave you in your letter with the coins.

@Slambass - my avatar is another one of his works. I live in a place where his NORFED dollars were accepted in most stores. So there were a lot of them here. We actually had a local vending machine that dispensed them. For a 20.00 bill you got a 1 oz. round. I wish I had gotten pics and video for the fun of it!
And... I just got my notice!

@Earle42 Is that the (in)famous Norfed dollar that he is facing counterfeiting charges regarding? What a witch hunt.

I received my two today. But they only have one sequence number (31) and it is on the receipt, not the coins, so I don't really see any value to the number. I also received my revolutionary mint Trump coins recently. 1 proof pure .999 fine Silver One Ounce "Vote Trump 2016" Coin limited mintage 150, as well as the the other two revolutionary Trump coins. All are quite pretty (but probably useless and one day not worth more than 1 oz silver). Well, except the proof with the 150 mintage, it is very ugly compared to the rest. So I guess the mintage is 750, 750, 650 (1st day stamp) and 150... Here are pics of all 4...

@bigsilver and Slambass
Yes - But its over and Bernie came out on top - sort of.
The NORFED illegal seizure was an abuse of power and a political move under the FBI of the last admin. They wanted to scare the public - which they did - to stop using/associating/collecting NORFED since NORFED pieces were becoming so popular.
Kangaroo court - read the minutes - they are online.
But b/c it was people above the law making the raid - the criminals are just returning his stolen stuff. Its similar to the proven abuse of powers by the IRS under the last admin - just on a smaller scale.
Bernie has three years of intense waiting to see what they were going to sentence him with. He was convicted, but the FBI knew they really could not go through with it. But again, they never had the goal of catching a counterfeiter - it was all about being able to say things to the public like, "These might be confiscated," and "Its illegal to own or use them," and "People using them might be charged."
There also was, no official apology to him. I hate that governmental powers have been able to abuse their authority in such a manner. But, we have been used to this for awhile now.
