This a bit belated but I thought some of you might enjoy visiting the links. Also, in case any of you might be thinking that such a “private barter” coinage would have a hope in hell of replacing the governments “funny money,” don’t forget Gresham’s Law–bad money drives out good. —

We just received notification that The Liberty Dollar was raided by federal agents Wednesday morning seizing all assets including more than two tons of recently delivered Ron Paul Dollars.

The Liberty Dollar was the creator of the extremely popular Ron Paul Dollars.  You can view the Ron Paul Dollar here:

Article from Evansville Courier & Press:

Liberty Dollar Office Raided
Staff report
Originally published 01:42 p.m.
November 15, 2007

The future of an Evansville-based company that produces a “private voluntary barter currency” known as the Liberty Dollar is in question after federal agents raided the facility this week, according to an e-mail sent by its founder.

Federal officials reportedly raided the group’s headquarters, located in a strip mall at 225 N. Stockwell Road, early Wednesday morning and seized documents and precious metals.

FBI Agent Wendy Osborne, a spokeswoman for the FBI’s Indianapolis office, directed all questions on the raid to the Western District of North Carolina U.S. Attorney’s Office. A spokeswoman there said she had no information on the investigation.

Bernard von NotHaus, the group’s monetary architect and the author of the e-mail, did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment.
Von NotHaus developed the Liberty Dollar in 1998 as an “inflation-proof” alternative currency to the U.S. Dollar, which he has claimed has devalued since the Federal Reserve was established in 1913. The silver medallions are produced by a private mint in Idaho on behalf of Evansville-based Liberty Services, which also issues paper notes which the group says are backed by silver reserves.

Liberty Dollar employees were at the office this morning cleaning up after the raid. They referred all questions to von NotHaus.

According to the e-mail, about a dozen agents arrived Wednesday morning and seized gold, silver, platinum and nearly two tons of recently delivered Ron Paul Dollars. They also took all the files, all the computers and froze the group’s bank accounts, the e-mail said.

“We have no money. We have no products. We have no records to even know what was ordered or what you are owed,” von NotHaus wrote in the e-mail, which was sent to Liberty Dollar customers. “We have nothing but the will to push forward and overcome this massive assault on our liberty and our right to have real money as defined by the US Constitution. We should not to be defrauded by the fake government money.”

The e-mail said the gold and silver that backs up the paper and digital currency was confiscated, as were the dies used to mint the Liberty Dollars themselves. As a result, it warns that recent orders placed for Liberty Dollars may not be filled and it encourages supporters to band together for a class action lawsuit.

The e-mail repeatedly defends the Liberty Dollar as legal.

“You did nothing wrong,” von NotHaus wrote. “You are legally entitled to your property. Let us use this terrible act to band together and further our goal to return America to a value based currency.”

Liberty Dollars Gone – ‘Ron Paul Dollars’ Confiscated?

Liberty Dollars Gone – ‘Ron Paul Dollars’ Confiscated?
From Bob & Suzanne Hamrick
11-15-7

http://www.rense.com/general79/libb.htm 

The following email is floating around the net, and cannot be fully verified at this time. The mainstream press has not picked up on this story at all. However, we received it from Bob Hamrick who received it in his email from a legitimate Liberty Dollar email address exactly has he has other emails from Liberty Dollar. He says he has no reason to suspect it is bogus in any way. We placed calls to Liberty Dollar but all button options from the automated operator lead to voicemail boxes only, so we could not confirm the validity of this story with a live person. That alone may be evidence that the story is true, as you shall see in the following letter from Liberty’s owner. This first appeared at an Italian news site (http://uruknet.info/?p=m38256&s1=h1) and the Liberty Dollar website at this time says nothing about a raid or the unavailability of Ron Paul Dollars. The class action lawsuit link, however, is a working url at the Liberty Dollar website. Stay tuned… – ed

Dear Liberty Dollar Supporters:

I sincerely regret to inform you that about 8:00 this morning a dozen FBI and Secret Service agents raided the Liberty Dollar office in Evansville.

For approximately six hours they took all the gold, all the silver, all the platinum and almost two tons of Ron Paul Dollars that where just delivered last Friday. They also took all the files, all the computers and froze our bank accounts.

We have no money. We have no products. We have no records to even know what was ordered or what you are owed. We have nothing but the will to push forward and overcome this massive assault on our liberty and our right to have real money as defined by the US Constitution. We should not to be defrauded by the fake government money.

But to make matters worse, all the gold and silver that backs up the paper certificates and digital currency held in the vault at Sunshine Mint has also been confiscated. Even the dies for mint the Gold and Silver Libertys have been taken.

This in spite of the fact that Edmond C. Moy, the Director of the Mint, acknowledged in a letter to a US Senator that the paper certificates did not violate Section 486 and were not illegal. But the FBI and Services took all the paper currency too.

The possibility of such action was the reason the Liberty Dollar was designed so that the vast majority of the money was in specie form and in the people’s hands. Of the $20 million Liberty Dollars, only about a million is in paper or digital form.

I regret that if you are due an order. It may be some time until it will be filled… if ever… it now all depends on our actions.

Everyone who has an unfulfilled order or has digital or paper currency should band together for a class action suit and demand redemption. We cannot allow the government to steal our money! Please don’t let this happen!!! Many of you read the articles quoting the government and Federal Reserve officials that the Liberty Dollar was legal. You did nothing wrong. You are legally entitled to your property. Let us use this terrible act to band together and further our goal – to return America to a value based currency.

Please forward this important Alert… so everyone who possess or use the Liberty Dollar is aware of the situation.

Please click HERE to sign up for the class action lawsuit and get your property back!

Thanks again for your support at this darkest time as the damn government and their dollar sinks to a new low.

Monetary Architect
