Vi, I would appreciate an opinion from you or any knowledgeable investor about the possibility of a repeat of the 1930s when President Roosevelt made it illegal to own gold. I'm told that he did not include rare gold but I have a further safeguard that I want your opinion on. I have noticed that the French gold 20 franc, especially the French Angel made in the 1800s, especially in BU and AU grades are quite popular. My thinking is that even if Mr. Bush made a stab at even rare gold he would be unable to confiscate a french coin held in your position since it is not monetarily US gold.

I need your opinion or any others as to the safety of the "Lucky" French Angel since I am scheduled to buy some in the near future.

All comments appreciated!

Jim
