I forgot who bought the Franklin Mint within the last year, but I remember that one thing they said was that the new owners wanted to revive their numismatics offerings. Buying these sunken treasure hoards may be part of their strategy.

On October 17, 2006 The Franklin Mint announced it was sold by Roll International Corp to a number of private investors including M. Moshe Malamud and Steven Sisskind, chairman and chief executive respectively from The Morgan Mint, and David Salzman, a Hollywood producer. The sale closed on August 31, 2006 and no price was announced. The new ownership plans to return Franklin Mint to its former market-leading status and offer the full lineup of collectibles including coins and medallics.
