Came across this on a trade board while I was surfing the net today. How and why would anyone offer a 25% discount? BTW I came across several boards with different sellers offering similiar deals, only with much less of a discount. Your opinions please.

ok, I came across some other posts on another board that claims that the gold is from WWII and that is why the big discount. I am going to email them and see what comes back.
