Probably honeypot operation. I wonder if DEA would auction those coins like all assets that get seized.

No, it was probably fallout from a controlled delivery or something. There have been multiple controlled deliveries in the past for SR users and so far zero honeypots or other fancy traps (see my collation of arrests/prosecutions in http://www.gwern.net/Silk%20Road#safe ).
