GOLD CONFISCATION OF 1933 II President Franklin D. Roosevelt attempted to stabilize the U.S. dollar in 1933 from the ravages of the Great Depression. He decided to confiscate U.S. gold coins from the citizens by Executive Order in exchange for paper U.S. currency notes. Some historians believe this was the beginning of the shrinking U.S. Dollar, as the government melted the majority of confiscated coins into bars and then devalued the dollar, raising gold s value by nearly 75%. Americans were required by the Presidential Executive Order to turn their gold coins in to a Federal Reserve Bank in exchange for currency, under the severe penalty of a $10,000 cash fine and 10 years potential imprisonment. There were a few exceptions to the order, including: Gold Coins having a recognized special value to collectors or rare and unusual coins. Because the majority of U.S. gold coins were melted into bars, any existing Pre-1933 era U.S. gold coins remaining today have both a gold value and a scarcity value because of high investor demand, and low supply. Owning gold coins protects against the shrinking dollar, inflation, and the volatile financial markets worldwide. 2 800 653 GOLD

III PHYSICAL GOLD. WHY NOW? An American Tradition Gold as Preservation of Wealth Look at the Consumer Price Index Chart below. Since the founding of our country, Americans have paid an increasing amount every year for goods and services. Everyone in the USA knows that the prices at the grocery store and the prices at the gas station have increased every year. Before the Gold Confiscation of 1933, when the U.S. Government took America off the gold standard, it was the American Tradition to own physical gold. Why? Simply put, for preservation of wealth and to hedge against inflation. The citizens did not necessarily believe in the U.S. Dollar as the standard currency. After 1933, once most of the U.S. gold was returned to the Federal Reserve and melted down (with the threat of 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine), the price of gold rose from $20 to $35 an ounce, starting the depreciation of the U.S. dollar, and thereby, the appreciation of Gold prices. Look at the Inflation Chart below. Americans have experienced an 87% decline in purchasing power of the U.S. dollar since 1950, as the dollar was no longer backed by physical gold. 1807 CONSUMER PRICE INDEX SINCE 1800 Federal Reserve Created (1913) Inflation Gold Standard Officially Eliminated (1933) 1821 182 1863 188 1905 1926 197 1968 1989 2006 Decline in Value of a 1950 Dollar Bill $1.00 $0.90 $0.80 $0.70 $0.60 $0.50 $0.0 $0.30 $0.20 $0.10 $0.00 INFLATION: 87% DECLINE IN PURCHASING POWER OF U.S. DOLLAR SINCE 1950 (A 1950 dollar is now worth 12.6 cents) 87% Less 1950 1956 1962 1968 1975 1981 1987 1993 1999 2005 2009 2010 www.americanbullion.com 3

THE SHRINKING U.S. DOLLAR IV The U.S. dollar is shrinking in value. It is obvious to everyone; a dollar does not buy what it used to! The U.S. Government is printing money at an increasing rate and the Federal Reserve Money Supply has doubled since 2008! The new global economy which has developed over the last ten years has seen a boom in the development of China, Brazil, India and Russia. The world is awash in U.S. dollars as the U.S. has sent trillions of dollars abroad to pay for products, services and commodities. According to a government report, the U.S. Dollar Index is down 37% since the year 2001. Therefore, if you had $100,000 in U.S. dollars in 2001, and the buying power has been shrinking every year, in early 2010 you would be able to buy $37,000 fewer worth of goods and services. Simply put, the U.S. dollars in your pocket bought you fewer products and services each and every year. With the federal bailouts and federal economic stimulus packages approved by Congress during 2008-2009, the U.S. Money Supply has skyrocketed. The U.S. dollar is being watered down in value. Gold, on the other hand, has steadily increased in value over the last ten year cycle while the U.S. Money Supply has more than doubled. Gold prices have increased approximately 350% since 2000 through 2010. Many institutions have purchased gold for protection against the paper markets, including the 152 year old insurance company Northwestern Mutual Insurance, who in 2009 purchased $00 Million in physical gold for portfolio protection.

V PIECE OF GOLD, PEACE OF MIND Portfolio Protection & Insurance How important is the security of your portfolio to you and your family? Savvy investors worldwide utilize gold as a hedge against inflation and to balance the effects of the Shrinking U.S. Dollar. Gold, as part of a well-balanced portfolio, is the ultimate portfolio diversifier. Gold tends to appreciate while stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and paper currency values fall. In addition, gold is the ultimate safe haven investment in times of geopolitical tensions and financial market instabilities. During uncertain times, investors must hope for the best and prepare fo the worst. Can you afford not to be protected? Can you drive your car without auto insurance? Can you afford to live without health insurance? Can you sleep at night without home insurance? Finally, Can you have peace of mind without financial insurance for your paper assets? Growth Potential & Profits Looking for profits? Industry experts are now forecasting the price of gold to potentially rise past $1,500 to $2,500 per ounce in the next five years. This could translate a return anywhere between 0% to over 100%! The institutional divisions of Bank of America, Citicorp, UBS, and Barclays Bank have forecast increasing gold prices. Smart Money, including investors such as U.S. billionaire Warren Buffett, companies such as Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance are investing in Gold. Also institutional buyers such as The Bank of China, The Bank of India, and Saudi Arabia have been investing in physical Gold and they recently announced new gold buying programs. www.americanbullion.com 5

GOLD FOR YOUR PORTFOLIO VI American Coins The American Tradition : Pre - 1933 GOLD These gold coins provide both gold and scarcity value. Only a small percentage of Pre-1933 Gold Coins survived the confiscation of U.S. gold in 1933. Minted for use as currency in the USA from 1795 to 1933, the meltdown of these coins has created a low supply and high demand in gold. These gold coins provide both gold value and scarcity value for the investor today. Certified high grade Pre-1933 U.S. Gold provide the investor with U.S. Gold which is protected and authenticated in sonically sealed, encapsulated holders, certified by independent laboratory and grading service PCGS (Professional Coin Grading Service) or NGC (National Guaranty Corporation). For privacy, no Social Security number is required to acquire Pre-1933 Gold and no 1099 is required to be issued when they are sold. Modern Gold : High Grade U.S. Bullion Gold American Bullion is proud to provide its clients with investment grade quality gold coins. These coins are shipped Direct Delivery for storage in a home safe or bank safety deposit box. Pricing on bullion gold varies daily based on market gold spot prices. Supply and demand factors have come into play during the years 2008-2009, as the U.S. Mint has closed its doors three times. For the first time in history the U.S. government has run out of gold! The U.S. Congress has mandated the minting of U.S. Gold Eagles from gold mined from U.S. soil. However, the investor demand for U.S. Eagles has outstripped the U.S. gold supply three times in a 12 month period in 2008-2009. Supply and demand factors have come into play during the years 2008-2009. 6 800 653 GOLD

VI GOLD FOR YOUR PORTFOLIO CONTINUED European Beauties Swiss 20 Franc Gold Coin These are one of the world s most known and universally accepted gold coins. This coinage series was authorized on January 6, 1896. The name of the coin derives from Verena, a personification of the Confederation of Switzerland in the female effigy. The coin is also known as a Helvetia from the inscription above the portrait. These coins were issued between 1897 and 199. French 20 Franc Rooster Gold Coin The Gallic rooster (French: le coq gaulois) is a national symbol. It gained particular popularity during the French Revolution, and has been a national emblem ever since. The rooster was featured on the reverse of French 20-franc gold pieces from 1899 to 191. The original mintage of these gold coins was fairly limited. Scarcity was increased by the melting of millions of gold 20 Francs during the 1930 s after private ownership of gold was outlawed in the United States. Even more were melted in the 1970 s to the 1980 s when gold soared to $850 per ounce. Surviving French 20 Franc Rooster gold coins are especially desirable today. One of the world s most recognized gold coins. The original mintage of these gold coins was fairly limited. British Sovereign Gold Coin In Victorian times it was the practice of the Bank of England to remove worn sovereigns and half sovereigns from circulation and have them recoined. Consequently, although a billion sovereigns have been minted in total, that figure includes gold that has been coined and recoined a number of times. When gold coins were finally withdrawn from circulation in 1933 in the US, thousands of British gold sovereigns were consigned to the melting pot. The world s most widely distributed coin. www.americanbullion.com 7

THE LOST DECADE... The Markets; VII Results on $100,000 Invested in Each Instrument in January 2000 NASDAQ S&P 500 DOW SILVER GOLD $5,928 $76,628 $91,816 $325,73 $397,152 You may be shocked to learn how badly U.S. stocks have performed in the last ten years. Let s say you had $ 100,000 on January 1, 2000 invested in the NASDAQ Index, your portfolio would be worth only $5,928 in January 2010. Or, let s say you had $ 100,000 in the S&P 500 Index, your investment would have lost more than 23% and be worth only $76,628. The U.S. Dollar; FEBRUARY 2010 See the Gold vs. Dollar index chart below. If you had $100,000 invested in U.S. dollars in 2001, it would have lost $37,000 in purchasing power for goods and services in early 2010. Therefore, the $100,000 in cash buys you only $63,000 worth of goods and services in early 2010. And The Gold; Now it s proven that it takes more than stocks and bonds to build a rock-solid portfolio. Considering how close the world has come to a total financial meltdown. It has never been more important to own physical gold to protect your portfolio against the shrinking U.S. dollar. What does this mean? Physical gold provides Wealth Preservation and Portfolio Protection against the U.S. federal bailouts which make the U.S. dollar a depreciating asset. Hedge yourself for the next 5-10 years and get protection against inflation and the global bear market. $100,000 INVESTED IN GOLD VS.

VIII The Dow Jones was 1,000 points in 2007... Many experts today say the buy and hold strategy of stock investment is a dead idea. Why? Because the Dow Jones Industrial Average is back to what is was in the year 1998. So, if investors purchased stocks back in 1998 they have experienced a roller-coaster ride between the boom and bust of technology stock in the year 2000, the credit crisis of 2007, and the financial meltdown in September 2008. The Dow Jones is down 8% for the period 2001 to 2010. The Wall Street Journal calls this period the Lost Decade in Stocks. GOLD VS. DOW JONES Stocks Buy and Hold Strategy is Dead PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT NECESSARILY INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS What Happened? Gold prices, on the other hand, have experienced a positive growth during the same period. In fact, gold prices have increased 397% since 2000. Supply and demand factors such as the increased buying of gold from Saudi Arabia, India, and global super-power China have exhausted gold mining supplies. The 9/11 attacks and the continued terrorist threats have alerted investors to the fact that some assets should be allocated into physical gold to protect their portfolios. Gold is true value, true wealth which is now appreciated by everyone worldwide to protect their nest egg whether they are a Central Bank or an individual investor. GOLD VS.
