<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1242296, member: 66"]Of course they can. Or at least they can pass a law at any time that requires you to hand them over. The fact that back in 1934 they modified the original Presidential order to allow collectors to keep "rare and unusual gold coins of recognized value to collectors", does not mean that they have to include that kind of language in any new legislation. If they were to pass a law or make another Presidential order today that said to turn over ALL gold or silver coins that would overturn the previous ruling that allowed you to keep them. People just don't seem to understand that the laws and situations that currently exist can always be changed by a law passed in the future. This "blindness" surprises me because can't they see that in 1932 they could own all the gold they wanted to, then in 1934 that couldn't? All it took was the issuing of a new Presidential order that changed the status quo. The same thing could happen tomorrow.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
