In 1933 U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt forbade ownership of Gold Coin, Gold Bullion, and Gold Certificates by U.S. citizens beyond a certain amount.
Today the federal government is far more involved in the economy then it was then.
Therefore, if a U.S. citizen buys gold and it appreciates, isn't there a reasonable basis to think the government might confiscate it?
