[QUOTE="GoldFinger1969, post: 26809370, member: 73489"][B][I]Read the FINAL SENTENCE in the document...and the final sentence in the next-to-last paragraph.[/I][/B] Treasury reveals that the courts will require an INTENTION to violate the GRA of 1934 to get a conviction and/or to uphold a seizure. [B]The Premium Exception overrides any "intent."[/B] And thus...Treasury is saying to the Secret Service...you MAY want to avoid the "inadvisable" position of seizing ALL COINS -- not most, many, or some coins !! :wideyed: -- because of this. [B][I]Back off...don't seize ALL the coins !!![/I][/B] It was generally the Secret Service -- by themselves or from lower-level Treasury officials -- taking the hardline stance from the 1933 Double Eagles to bullion and coin seizures. Here's the top Treasury and legal people saying.....[B][COLOR=#ff0000]back off. [/COLOR][/B][/QUOTE]
