allranger Pillar of the Community United States 1391 Posts	Posted 06/20/2011 5:44 pm I remember reading that things like coins, watches and other collectibles were exempt from this. Wikipedia has more on it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_Order_6102 Not that it can't happen in the future. I've thought about those issues when I bought a Nazi silver coin. The silver could have come from somebodies pried filling before their body was creamated. Came to the conclusion most silver or gold has been blood money at one point and that is was more important to keep it for posterity. Most kids now understand little about those times, other than the whole, "Hitler kicked little puppies too!" type of argument. Report this Post to the Staff

OTOH, we ARE talking about gold buying, selling, taxing, confiscating and the nefarious government types who would be sniffing it out. You don't really think that they would settle for a "the dog ate my homework" kind of answer, do you? Report this Post to the Staff
