Open original source ↗Is the current Secretary of the Treasury really this misinformed? He just said that if you have an old gold or silver certificate, you can bring it to Fort Knox and claim your metal. That’s false. Gold certificates have not been redeemable for gold since 1933, and silver-certificate redemption ended in 1968. If Bessent is this ignorant about the history and status of U.S. currency, why should we trust his assurances about the gold supposedly held at Fort Knox?
