"The national central banks (NCBs) already pool 20 percent of their gold
and dollar reserves with the ECB in order to back up the European
Monetary System. In return they receive official Ecus on their balance
sheets. These quarterly Ecu swaps will continue until the end of 1998,
central bankers have said.

In answer to a question, Duisenberg said the valuation of gold and other
reserves to be transferred to the ECB would be determined later in the
year, meaning the exact tonnage of gold to be pooled in Frankfurt cannot
yet be estimated."

Jim,
we are back to ground zero. The CBs will want to sell all their holdings, but likewise they will be afraid to sell any, "just in case the Euro does not work".
They are afraid of the old golden rule, "he who holds the gold makes the rules"!
