Got proof of that? Why would they seize that, when other people have far more than that amount of gold in jewelry?
 Quoting: oniongrass


the year stamped on the gold is why... hello,, anyone in there?
 Quoting: Loup Garou


Why would they seize them, numismatic value? That's a defense. You are allowed to collect coins.
 Quoting: oniongrass


Their flimsy excuse seems to be that those coins were supposed to have been turned in and were not under the edict of the time. I think there was also some argument that they were not even supposed to have been issued with that date. Regardless, it's poor sportsmanship at the least, and dangerously out of control at worst.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78947779


Ah yes, that's the year FDR took the gold. So the numismatic value of those must have been astronomical.

We are capable of doing a complete subsistence farm and have 14 acres in the ozarks that is mtn top....a hot spot in the beginning we are pretty sure. Rather start out north just a little in the flat where we can crop up and keep that going, and after yellville settles, go get the "wayback" ready for us.

Money money money - even on somebody elses hundred acres.

Authored by Mac Slavo via SHTFplan.com,

According to one hedge-fund manager, known for his “doom and gloom” economic outlooks, the federal government may soon make stashing gold away illegal for individuals. Crispen Odey believes that governments will ban the possession of gold if they lose control of inflation of their fiat currency.

It is no surprise that people are buying gold. But the authorities may attempt at some point to de-monetize gold, making it illegal to own as a private individual. They will only do this if they feel the need to create a stable unit of account for world trade.
 Quoting: Don Draper from Nantucket


Impossible.

They would have to get rid of jewelry first.

And thats never going to happen.

Buy all the gold, and turn it into rings, earrings, necklaces, etc.

They cant stop people from having jewelry.

Pre-1933 gold is super rare. Lots of dealers want to buy it all.
 Quoting: MissCleo


It's not rare at all. Dealers will buy it all but that doesn't make it rare.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 66099637


Here's what I was trying to say:
"First of all, it is important to know that when the United States was minting these coins, there were actually three denominations of U.S. currency: Cents, Dollars, and Eagles. There were one hundred cents in a dollar (like how it is today), and ten dollars in an eagle. That is why you will see some Pre-1933 gold and rare coins referred to as “Quarter Eagle,” “Half Eagle,” “Eagle,” and “Double Eagle.” Aside from the investment benefits of their gold content, Pre-1933 gold coins are attractive to collectors for their collectibility and historical significance. These factors are what give pre-1933 gold a premium over its melt value.
Some Pre-1933 gold coins are rare, and rare coins will have a higher premium than more common Pre-1933 gold coin"

Re: "Land Of The "Free"? Stashing Gold May Be Illegal Soon
It's good to know some history on the matter when trying to guess what will happen. In 1934 the US was in the middle of the great depression, high unemployment and lots of deflation.

FDR got in office and he wanted to 'stimulate' the economy by deficit spending, increasing the overall debt. But he couldn't do it legally because at the time the Fed had a gold coverage ratio, so much of it's debt/credit had to be backed by physical gold bullion I think the ratio was 0.25 or 25%.

So what FDR really wanted to do was increase the price of gold so that the government could then issue more debt and increase his deficit spending. When he issued the EO gold was $35 an ounce, say the government had 640,000,000 ounces, at $35 per ounce and a gold coverage ratio of 25%, the government's limit on debt was 89,600,000,000 or about $90 billion.

Increasing the price of gold to $50 an ounce from $35 an ounce increased the debt limit to $128,000,000,000 or $128 billion.

So to get the same kind of boost today, treasury would have to revalue gold to something like $50,000 per ounce. Then ban it's sale in the economy. They might do this, but that would cost them a lot of confidence from people with $$

You cannot own property of any kind if you use Federal Reserve Notes/Currency to buy said property.

It does not matter if it is gold or warm piss, you do not own it, you have some limited USE right, which can be taken at the will of the issuer of the Note (debt).

You are a debt slave, I do not care how many numbers are in an account, you own NOTHING and they will prove it to you soon enough.

and you are ignorant to what FIAT CURRENCY DEBT is.

how can you own something when you never gave any consideration for it?

you will probably need to read this, right from the horses mouth, so to speak:

"Federal Reserve notes are not redeemable in gold, silver or any other commodity, and receive no backing by anything This has been the case since 1933. The notes have no value for themselves..."
[link to www.treasury.gov (secure)]

Something with no value cannot pay for anything, nor can it convey any title or right of ownership since their is no "consideration" exchanged. You will need to look up consideration, since you do not know what that means either.

Grow up and learn something, debt slave.

Show me your allodial title to anything, even the body you are walking around in, you own ZERO and OWE everything.

But what happens in war when US debt is forgiven. So US acquires resources and debt is erased. Debt just disappears like a miracle.

So gold will be $5000 to $25000 per oz in a free market.

exactly correct!!
" Federal Reserve notes represent a first lien on all the assets of the Federal Reserve Banks, and on the collateral specifically held against them.

[link to www.treasury.gov (secure)]

A FIRST lien on all collateral. That means the lien YOU put on any property by borrowing Federal Reserve Notes to get it is a SECOND (or THIRD lien), so one may be discharged, but the FIRST lien is never gone.

That is what TAXES are for, to discharge interest on the debt that the bankruptcy of 1933 was.

There is only collateral and debt, and the collateral is FIRST liened by the Federal Reserve.

PEONS one and all.

The very intent of paper gold is to suppress the price and value of the real deal, until they can, under the colour of law declare their "right" to delegitimize your right to property of anything they deem desirable to them, and they mean to simply confiscate what they want under the colour of the law that they control. None of their promises or covenants are to be honoured when that time comes.
They have no concerns for the lives or rights of others.
It's not an accident that they make every effort to control tbrough censorship of the media they control.

OK smart guy. A federal reserve note is an obligation of the US government. That means if you have a five dollar bill, the government owes you five dollars. If I owe you five dollars and give you the bill, now the government owes YOU five dollars,. That is called offsetting a debt, which is how it works now. You cannot PAY for anything with a federal reserve note, therefore you cannot OWN anything because you FAILED to pay for it. Old bills used to say "legal tender and redeemable in LAWFUL MONEY".
I've gotten a lot of red for telling the truth and being right. Just sayin'
