"Controlling the money for the state? Prominent local Republican and coin dealer Tom Noe, whose firm made more than $1 million off the deal last year alone.

"And the state has maintained its stake in Capital Coin despite documented problems... Two coins worth roughly $300,000 were lost in the mail in 2003."

That's right. He invested the state pension fund in buffalo nickels, in violation of a clear conflict of interest. And he even had some of the loot "lost in the mail".
