Don't go to the bank, there are plenty of stores which are happy to exchange those bulky, heavy & time consuming to count and store coins for easier to handle paper bills, no tracks there

If they they are 75% copper and 25% nickel? 

Why are they still called Nickels?

That part of the health care bill isn't in effect yet and it looks like it never will come into effect, its due to be removed.

 

You seem to be worried that it would be confiscated? It worked in 1933 but it wouldn't fly today. CC records are only kept for 6 months with most CC company's once paid.  I donno why you would need to hide it.

 

Just Imagine that a bank run occurs and they freeze all US accounts ... is your money in a bank right now? What did the old timers say "never put anything in a bank" or something like that. Its because before FDIC if a bank went under so did your money .... today its insured to $200K per account by the Gov, what if the banks go under and the Gov goes under just the same? We're already broke, they would have to borrow every cent from foreign countrys to cover your loss. What if the foreigners don't give the Gov a loan to pay you and everyone else... what if they printed the money to give you and by the time you got it, it was worth half or less? 

 

The only option I see is buying Silver or if you have lots of money gold because its compact wealth. If you are scared that the G-men or others would take it from you cashe it into the ground somewhere. Hide it in a wall, take out a brick in the wall of your basement put the metals in the cavity put the brick back and mortar over it and paint the wall. Just have a sledge hammer about in case you have to evacuate. Problem solved.

Hoarding money illegal ... LOL, nope it's not and laws prohibiting "hoarding" are not laws, just like the government can't make a law saying blacks have to go to the back of the bus. All those hoarding "laws" equal a common criminal with a gun telling you to do what he says or else... good thing we haves guns as well so when that happens the real LAW will prevail, common sense and freedom. Government will ALWAYS go as far as we let them.

 

@Doc, your right the US Mint coins them not the FED no interest involved.

 

@Lauren, you can look up different gold and silver stores in the nearest big city, just pay with credit card or check if your getting a lot unless you fudge your taxes and even then just buy legal tender coins like silver eagles or American buffalo's they're only face value $50 for the buffalos when you report them if you do report them for some reason.
