Good luck transporting and securing larger quantities of gold and also exchanging it for money. One basically has to declare any quantity in excess of six ounces / 170 grams of gold because it exceeds 10k US dollars / euros.

what's wrong with declaring? It's not like it'd be taken from you...unless you illegitimately obtained it.
It can via tax...
If there is a wealth tax, as is being discussed in many places, it could be taken from you.
If you carry your bitcoin wallet with you do you need to declare that?
