Depends on how "Sovereign Citizen"* the group is, just because they know something does not mean that they will tell ANYONE connected to a Government. Do not under estimate how opposed some of these groups are to Governmental Authority. I will note that roughly $35,000 in gold is less than a kilogram.

Yes and no. Thirty seconds with a Dremel, and any serial number on the bar is gone. The subset of people who only want to trade in silver or gold will not care about that, and after it it is put in a safe with other bars, they lose individuality. Even if the shop owners are willing to play ball with law enforcement, without serial numbers, they can only point to the guy who gave them to him.
