All of which opens the door to government interference in the otherwise

As we've learned over the last several years, the government is NOT to
be trusted in matters that intrude into private citizen activities. This
includes, and may especially include, ownership of precious metals.

Actually, they are just expanding, and rather stealthily, sneak-ily,
etc. the reporting and tracking of gold:

When "they" come to get your guns, or imprison you for the "loss" of
them -- they will be grabbing precious metals, also.

You are already wise to keep gold purchases to many small quantities
rather than one large one ... and, to keep an eye on the availability of
black markets, as what good will the gold do you if the government
forces you to sell it to them at no better prices than if you had simply
saved worthless dollars?
