Making the 1913 Liberty nickel illegal as well? Seriously, the minting of these coins is a historical event that happened such a long time ago, can't we all just get over it?

It's like a man whose ancestors were enslaved, and then sues the descendant of the man who owned his ancestor. It happened a long time ago. Can't we just leave it in the past?

By the logic in force here, anything the Government determines has been stolen or illegally obtained can be confiscated from citizens at any time, with no recompense, without regards to relevant local or state laws, and without regards to statutes of limitation;

Worse than that, since the lower ruling stands it now means that anything that was once in government hands can now be confiscated and the government can just state they were stolen government property and they can keep it. They don't have to prove it was stolen, the declaration is good enough. The law of forfeiture does not apply to them if they SAY it was stolen.
