The gentleman didn't have a will and apparently family either.

Since it was gold I knew it wasn't you - that would have been $7 million in silver. You're only up to 1 million in gold so far, right? :lol:

I am more angry than I've been in a while that Beaunaderos beat me to the punch :)

I was totally going to write, "oh no Beaunaderos has died".

You are the man Beanaderos. And you've won this round :)

He's my long lost dad. I need to get in touch with the authorities now, sorry NDfatmer. Son has a better claim than the nephew.

They found a distant cousin thru the funeral rolls. Also, the Government could actually take up to 75% of the total value of the lot for Inheritance Taxes (Unreported from Mother to Son, and from the guy to the girl), Unreported Income, State Taxes, Capital Gains Taxes, and any adjusted value if Numismatic Value of Coins and Cash is factored in.

That Cousin is gonna get a paltry paycheck when all's said and done.

The cousin can fight all of that. If the dead man DID PAY his taxes and has some reasonable record of purchasing or using real money to buy the gold there will be no issues with taxes, other than the lengthy process.

He can also fight against bogus over-valuation of semi-numismatic gold.

Inheritance tax over, I think $2 million (is that correct?) is taxes as normal income in these cases, so he would lose 35% of that amount.

So if he fights and if the old man paid his taxes he'll get about $5 million.

Which is well above paltry.

Unless they raised it I think you can only inherit $1 million without paying taxes on it.

Ok, it may be $1 mil tax free. That still puts him right about $5 mil "take home".
