内容简介

One coin, for years the only known 1933 twenty - dollar Double Eagle in the world, has inspired the passions of thieves and collectors, lawyers and charlatans. Its extraordinary story winds across seventy years and three continents, linking an almost unbelievable cast of characters: Theodore Roosevelt and a Philadelphia gold dealer with underworld connections; King Farouk and a Secret Service agent; London's most successful coin dealer and a retired trucker from Amarillo.
