Chapter 833 Double Eagle Gold Yuan

Treasure hunting, adventure, seabed, shipwreck, ancient gold coins.

These words are put together, and when they hear Winslow's words, Lacey, Chenier, and Mona's eyes light up, and Michelle and Roan also show an interested expression.

Winslow opened the file and said:

"The test report of the trace inspection department shows that these 9 gold coins are "Double Eagle Gold Dollars", and then..."

"What?!"

Winslow was just halfway through his words when a surprised female voice suddenly sounded. Roan, Mona and others turned their heads and found that the person who exclaimed was Michelle.

Chenier and Lacey were very surprised. As Michelle, who "got rid of low-level physical interests", she has been working in the special investigation team for so long, and her emotions are very stable most of the time.

No matter how big the difficulties are, Michelle's first reaction is not to complain or collapse, but to think about analyzing and solving the difficulties.

Scenes like today's exclamation are indeed quite rare for Michelle.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her in surprise, Michelle was a little embarrassed. She stroked her hair and explained seriously:

"The double eagle gold dollar was a federal currency issued during a period of the last century. It has a very high collection value. A gold coin minted in 1787 was auctioned for more than 700,000 US dollars.

In 2003-2004, a family in Philadelphia found ten "double eagle coins" in the safe of their deceased father.

They then contacted the mint and sent the gold coins for identification.

The mint determined that the gold coins were genuine, but refused to return them on the grounds that they had stolen state-owned property.

The family filed a lawsuit in anger. The federal government stated that they could not prove that they had obtained the gold coins through legal means, so they had no ownership and the gold coins were confiscated."

"..."x5

Winslow and Lacey were speechless, Mona and Chenier were full of contempt, but Roan was not too surprised by this.

After all, it is a world beacon, and they have the final say on when the light will be on.

After Michelle finished her brief account, she looked at Winslow with great interest and asked:

"What does the Trace Inspection Department say? In which year were these "Double Eagle Gold Dollars" produced?"

"Uh, the Trace Inspection Department doesn't know either."

Winslow spread his hands, indicating that the Trace Inspection Department, like the previous counterfeit coins, had no experts in antique gold coins.

They could only confirm that the gold coins were "Double Eagle Gold Dollars", and the specific minting time might require the relevant appraisers to know.

Roan waved his hand to signal Winslow to continue with the first words. Winslow nodded and said:

"The Trace Inspection Department said that no matter where these "Double Eagle Gold Dollars" were found, it means that there is definitely a very large shipwreck there.

Along with these "Double Eagle Gold Dollars", there is a high probability that there will be a huge amount of gold and other treasures."

Roan frowned slightly, took the interrogation record from Mona, and said:

"Anatoly just said that in addition to these gold coins, they also found some gold bars, but they were stolen.

On those gold bars, there is a Some words like "kelloo...139NN..." etc.

Winslow, take this information to the trace examination department and see if they can find out which shipwreck it is. "

"I'll go there right away."

Winslow nodded and immediately turned to leave the office area. Lacey looked at the interrogation record in Luo An's hand and asked:

"Luo An, did Anatoly find any clues?"

"In fact, he directly explained the situation behind this case."

Luo An smiled, handed the interrogation record to Lacey, and briefly described Anatoly's experience.

After listening to Anatoly's story, Chenier and Michelle looked at each other. Lacey was silent for a few seconds and said:

"So, this case is not a counterfeit case, but actually a case of robbery?"

"In a sense, you can say that."

Luo An nodded and took a sip of coffee.

The story behind this case is not complicated. Anatoly, Benson, Leon and others were on the sea, driving a treasure-hunting ship to search for shipwrecks, and successfully discovered these "double eagle gold coins" and gold bars.

They planned to change to a larger ship to salvage the shipwreck, but the news leaked. Not long after they landed, they met a gang of thieves who wanted to kidnap them and go treasure hunting themselves.

"I have a question."

At this point, Lacey raised her hand and asked in confusion:

"I can understand that if you can't beat a gang of thieves, you can run away.

Benson and Leon want to divert the trouble and drag other people into the water, and I can understand their ideas.

Benson later gave the counterfeit money to Anatoly and asked him to take the money and run away, which means that Benson probably knew that someone was making counterfeit money in the factory in the suburbs.

But this kind of information should be very hidden. How did Benson know it?"

"I haven't thought about it clearly."

Mona nodded , agreed with Lacey's words very much, and she immediately added:

"In addition, I have another question.

I don't quite understand why Benson and Leon trust Anatoly so much.

They let Anatoly keep the gold coins, gave Anatoly counterfeit money, and let Anatoly escape in the chaos, but the two of them stayed behind to cover their retreat.

Since they have been robbed by the gang, they should have had trust issues internally."

"Is it possible that Anatoly's mental state is not very good?"

Michelle gave her own guess and said:

"Anatoly has some mental problems, so the two of them believe that there is nothing wrong with him."

"..."

Mona, Chenelle and Lacey looked at Michelle speechlessly, wanting to complain but not knowing what to say, because her guess did make sense on some level.

"For the first question, we should have the opportunity to catch Leon and others and ask them face to face. As for the second question..."

At this moment, Luo An next to him shook his head. He showed a report to the four people and said:

"Here's the real reason."

Lacey quickly reached out and took the paper. Mona, Chenelle and Michelle quickly turned their eyes and saw that it was Anatoly's physical condition test report issued by the doctor.

Ordinary bruises, excessive blood loss, fractures, etc. were swept away. The four women continued to look down, and words such as "genital warts" and "rectal mucosal injury" appeared in front of them.

"..."x4

The four women fell silent for a moment. They all learned some basic knowledge during FBI training and understood the meaning behind these words.

Especially Lacey, she can proudly say that no one in this office knows better than her.

Luo An on the side rubbed his temples. During the interrogation just now, when talking about topics related to Benson, Leon and women, Anatoly had experienced "jealousy" emotions many times in his mind.

Luo An thought he had guessed wrong at first, but after leaving the interrogation room and carefully reading the medical report, he remembered what Anatoli had said before that their treasure hunt ship was constantly drifting at sea for more than a month or even three months. Anatole is very thin and has a passable face...

Luo An did not comment on this. There are more than a hundred genders in the Federation, and men are nothing at all. This is called freedom.

Lacey put the report aside, and the girls tacitly agreed not to discuss it anymore. Chenelle thought about it and asked:

"Roan, what do we do next?"

"Next, let's leave Washington, D.C., and go see the South."

Luo An crossed his arms over his chest and smiled:

"Go to Atlanta and experience the local customs."
