Bullshit. That's a con game by coin dealers to get you to pay high premiums based upon the fear of confiscation.
It's unlikely that there will be any kind of physical confiscation. More likely is a 'windfall profits' tax on the sale of precious metals (AND collectible coins) once the price has skyrocketed. Either confiscation or 'confiscatory taxation' would result in a lively black market.
It's imperative to move assets offshore NOW before the transition to a police state is complete.
