Spin off thread from here.
Are you sure this law still exists? It would be very strange, since governments nowadays listen to physics and ordinary chemistry and quite incorrectly believe their claim that manufacturing gold and silver through "chemical" methods is "impossible". If such a law exists it would be a hilarious feat of hypocrisy: on the one hand the official establishment denies the reality of transmutation while on the other it criminalizes it! The guy whose gold was taken away could actually sue the government for confiscating something that according to they themselves "does not exist".
Yes some persons did transmutations and had some money with it. A french man in Paris did 75 kg of gold and wanted to sell them to the Banque de France. Because of an old law in France, that not allows anyone to produce gold, the 75kg were taken away from him.
