<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 26052006, member: 101855&quot;]My mother was convinced that it was illegal to own gold coins in the early 1960s. She was astonished when she was at the coin counter at the Gimbels Department Store in New York, and they had &quot;gold coins right out there for sale!&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>To clarify the law, until 1974, it was illegal to own gold coins that were dated after 1933. Anything before then was legal to own. That met that a coin like this this gold sovereign from British King George VI&#039;s corronation was illegal to own for United States citizens. U.S. citizens could not legally own this piece and store it abroad. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1656983[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
