Decision on Seized Witte Coins Awaited
Washington Treasury review continues on Senator Tower's request to avoid melting down gold coins seized in 1963 from the Witte Museum in San Antonio. The senator seeks time to study tentative legislation, awaiting a formal Treasury reply before deciding whether to include the measure. The Treasury previously informed the museum it would remold forfeited coins and pursue penalties against the museum director for illegal possession.
