Time to open the fort knox gold vault and sell the public back the gold they stole from the people in the 30's. http://www.the-privateer.com/1933-gold-confiscation.html <<<biggest robbery in history?
Unfortunately, all the gold confiscated in 1933 was melted into bullion and all numismatic value lost.
No it wasn't because they didn't confiscate the gold, they required it to be turned in and they paid the current official price for the gold of $20. some odd cents per oz. And that amount was actually higher than the free market price at the time.
No not true. They forced people to give up gold backed money for worthless "government backed" paper money. Back then the primary value in the money was the gold value. If someone forced you to sell all your stocks because they were rising in value, then made you take a worthless substitute that will continuously go down for decades would you do it?
