And would you be knowing all powerful one when the Central Banks would have been accumulating that gold? The vast majority of it over sixty years ago.

And if gold in the reserves serve no function why do they still have roughly the same amount they did fifty years ago? It has never really been sold out of the central banks,just shifted from one Central Bank to another. Check the numbers, you will see that the European banks have decreased their holdings while the Chinese, Asian and now Russian Central Banks have been increasing there gold reserves.
