[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 26761007, member: 27832"]And, of course, AGEs were [I]not[/I] exempt. ;) I'm not entirely sure how this played out at the time. I mean, [I]all[/I] pre-1933 US gold is numismatic now, but at the time, most of it wasn't. It was just another form of circulating cash, right? I could [I]claim[/I] that I'm hanging onto random ASEs and AGEs for "numismatic interest", but if something like that executive order [I]did[/I] come down, and they started coming after individuals suspecting of hoarding, I'm not sure how things would unfold. How would you defend the idea that you're collecting as opposed to hoarding? (For clarity, I'm [I]deeply[/I] skeptical that "They" will ever Come For Our Gold And Silver.
