FILE--This is a November 28, 1963 file photo of The Beatles left to right: Ringo Starr, George Harrison, Paul McCartney and John Lennon, pictured with a hoard of silver discs. It has emerged Wednesday September 13, 2000 that gold discs presented to the Beatles to celebrate the millionth sale of A Hard Day's Night were seized by customs officials in the 60s after the group failed to pay import duty on the items and still remain in the Customs and Excise library. According to documents released at the Public Records Office in Kew, west London, the 10 discs, presented to the four members of the band by the Capitol recording company, were confiscated at the Royal Victoria docks in London on December 6, 1964 having arrived by boat from the US.
