<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Rono, post: 331361, member: 6492&quot;]Howdy,</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Well, as the author points out, the gov&#039;t can willy-nilly pass any sort of law they wish and in the process define &#039;numismatic value&#039; in any way they choose.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Methinks they would exempt collectible coins to some degree, but just where the line would be . . . . </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Author mentions those bullion coins with a numismatic premium greater than 15%. He also mentions those older than 100 years.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I would think that coins that were slabbed could be justifiably assumed to have some numismatic value.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>You could also make the case that any Proofs would have value.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>On the other end of the spectrum, we could safely assume that generic rounds and ingots would not be safe.&nbsp; And contrary to the author, I would NOT include gold and silver eagles as being exempt.&nbsp; Cripes, they were invented strictly to serve the bullion market and collecting them as been secondary.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>However, let me go on record that I really don&#039;t trust the gov&#039;t NOT to attempt to confiscate all the bullion.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>and so it goes,</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>rono[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
