Probably not very hard to smuggle gold.

1 billion dollar worth of gold is 4ft cube. That’s it.

But that weighs almost twenty thousand lbs

So ten tons, split that across the backseats of several cars and go.

Or for subtlety a single backpack can easily fit a million or two at a liftable weight.

It's actually closer to 25 metric tons.. so 50,000 lbs. :)
