From May, 2003, to May, 2005, as a member of the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee, Mr. Noe made frequent trips to Washington. He visited the Mint for meetings and built relationships with federal officials and lawmakers.

The Treasury Department’s inspector general began its probe of Mr. Noe after The Blade first reported in April, 2005, on problems with the $50 million rare-coin funds he managed for the state, e-mails show.

At the time of the initial reports in The Blade, Mr. Noe — appointed by Republican governors to serve on the Ohio Board of Regents and the Ohio Turnpike Commission — was gaining stature in Washington. And the state of Ohio was on the verge of giving him an additional $25 million to invest in rare coins — a plan that was reversed after stories about the coin funds appeared in the newspaper.

USA WHITE KNEW OCT 13TH, BUT HE WAS ALLOWED TO REMAIN IN HIGH PROFILE BOARDS AND WAS ABOUT TO GET AN ADDITIONAL $25 MILLION TO INVEST WHEN THE TOLEDO BLADE BROKE THE STORY IN APRIL OF 2005.

DID YOU READ THAT? APRIL 2005-6 MONTHS AFTER BEING MADE AWARE OF THE PROBLEMS.

WAS THIS A PAYOFF? Inquisitive folks would love to know! SUBPOENA THEM!
