<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 1540945, member: 3011&quot;]I asked my grandfather once if he turned in his gold during the depression.&nbsp; He said that he never owned a gold coin in his life and didn&#039;t know many people who did so it wasn&#039;t a big deal.&nbsp; The gold confiscation primarily affected bank gold, not individual gold holdings.&nbsp; Also, I believe there was an exemption of something like 5 $20 gold coins per family member that could be retained, so this didn&#039;t pose much of a direct threat to most people.</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: CJay just posted 10 coins per person and I will defer to that account since I&#039;m going from memory here and didn&#039;t look it up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
