Going back to one other comment...in this modern era of civil asset forfeiture, and the incentivization to make it happen (ie the group who confiscates that 'potential crime related money/bullion' gets to keep a lot of the proceeds...which funds things like new equipment)...I'd be very leery if not downright paranoid.
