I thinking mainly countries, criminals, and specialized artisans and industrial manufacturers take physical delivery of large quantities of gold. I'm sure there are always some usual requests to insist on physical delivery of gold in the case of options.

Perhaps instead we should create aqua regia and dissolve copious amounts of gold, Fields Medals, and Nobel Prizes to be smuggled as, say, industrial waste. /s ;)
