Judy Shelton (Trump's treasury nominee and a gold standard advocate) proposed issuing a $5 trillion bond paid over 50 years backed by US gold reserves; this would equate to ~$15,000 per ounce of gold (based on 8,000 tons), matching Roosevelt's 1933 revaluation strategy.

“she said why don't we issue a $5 trillion Bond pay out over 50 years back by the US's gold reserves you know what that's a great idea when you really think about it and you put it in a historical perspective because it's exactly what Rosevelt does in 1933”
