[QUOTE="NPCoin, post: 7627556, member: 5629"]As the title requested, [B]just the facts[/B]: The codified regulation is 31 CFR § 82. The reference for this regulation was published in the [I]Federal Register[/I] Vol. 72, No. 72, Monday, April 16, 2007, page 18880. Authority for the Secretary of the Treasury to create, modify, and enforce this regulation rests in 31 U.S. Code § 5111(d) 31 CFR § 82.1 specifically references only [U]one cent and five cent coin of the United States[/U]. 31 CFR § 82.2(d) explicitly excludes "war nickels" from this regulation. You must comply with the laws of any country which you are a resident or citizen of. As well, you must comply with any laws of any authority in which you pass through. So, it is all circumstantial. However, for a U.S. citizen within U.S. borders, barring any additional compacts entered between the U.S. and other nations, 31 CFR § 82 applies only to [U]one cent and five cent coin of the United States[/U]. I have seen others post replies such as: Please give legal code or regulatory references. Thank you![/QUOTE]
