<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Barney McRae, post: 25597530, member: 150594&quot;]Yes, but the government melted down all of the gold coins they could get their hands on, and much of the gold bullion bars were shipped overseas to prevent confiscation. Gold bars are a big deal right now as evidenced by the Costcos of the world selling them over the counter. That would stop immediately.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, it became a $10,000 fine to own more than $100 face value in coin. I&#039;d consider that a draconian measure of desperation. What was 10k in 1933 worth today in fines?<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
