That's if he serves the full term; expect him to serve a third of it or less.

They already sold the coins to Spectrum Numismatics, who guaranteed the state a $7.5 million return. You can read my write-up here.

 

Spectrum did not create a special auction, per se. These coins were mixed in with other auctions so as to not cause a stir. There was no report as to the final prices for these coins.

 

Considering the issues, this was the best deal Ohio could have made at the time.
