Leaving With Gold Coins

[goodboyjakey]

I presume that gold coins are regarded as bullion and therefore when leaving the country you should know the market value of the gold so that you know you are under 10.000?
Anyone know a reference I could look at?

I should add that the person who is trying to leave also brought them into the country with them but has no receipt.

If I were trying to smuggle gold coins out of the country I wouldn't post about it on the Internet.
