They won’t confiscate it and not pay anything. That would be, I guess, 
completely against the law. But say the price today, say around 
$1,200-something, then what they can do is they could essentially say, 
“Okay. We collect all the gold and pay $800.” More likely is that they 
would first try to depress it to $800 and then do it, then they’ll pay 
$800. Once they collect all the gold, like in 1933, they reevaluate to 
say, $10,000.
