Site is down at the moment, maybe they are revising it for the Kremlin Gold.

BTW, I saw many Faberge eggs several years ago when they were at the San Diego Musuem of Art.

PBS has an excellent site: pbs.org

The two eggs (Standart and Trans Siberia Railroad) that will be shown in Houston with good photos are at:

China Buying Gold............

China may deregulate gold imports within 2 years of WTO entry
Hong Kong--June 5--China's expected entry into the World Trade Organization
(WTO) in 2000 may prompt the government to allow firms other than the central
bank to import gold within two years, a gold official in Beijing said on Monday.
At present, the central bank strictly regulates the gold imports into China. The
government is also seen allowing physical gold trading in the domestic market in
2002 as part of its efforts to make it more market-oriented, the official said.

China believed to be raising gold reserves while price is low
Hong Kong--June 5--China is believed to have been importing gold to increase
the national gold reserves because of low prices in the international market, an
official source in Beijing told BridgeNews on Monday. The source was reluctant
to speculate on the amount of gold the government holds in reserve because the
level fluctuates due to imports and exports. (Story .12619)
