I have married a girl from China. I want to give her family a gift. I don't have much money so I would like to give them gold nuggets. I am flying to meet her family and would like to just bring 2 oz's of raw gold nuggets to give to them, is this legal with customs?

"Answer: According to the regulations, if gold, silver and the products made from them are less than 50g (2 ounce), they are duty-free and do not need to be declared. If the weight exceeds the limitation, you should declare it." I.e if the nuggets weight more than 50 g then you have to declare it and pay duty.
