The number for Russia is outdated. Russia has run her reserves to prosecute the war with Ukraine.

All looks good until we get down to these pragraphs further down in the article:

The nation with the most gold reserves is, unsurprisingly, the USA. Their total is by far the largest of all the nations on our list, holding 4,000 tonnes more than second-place Germany, but this total is subject to concerns and criticism.

The first problem is accuracy. Documents pertaining to the authenticity of gold bullion held in both New York and at Fort Knox has either gone missing or been destroyed. Rules introduced in 1974 were supposed to mean a one-time check of all America’s bullion, but gold has been found to have been accessed and potentially tampered with since that inspection.

The second is the consideration of foreign gold holdings. The US, like Britain, France and Switzerland, has often been a safe haven for gold bullion reserves in times of civil or national conflict. There are those who believe that America’s reserve total also includes Germany’s national gold reserves (amongst others) which, until repatriation in 2013, were held in New York.

The final part is purity. With much of the US gold reserves from older acquisitions, some experts believe the United States holdings are not fine quality bullion and that, were they melted down and remade into 24-carat bars, the total holding would come down dramatically.

China is believed to hold much more than they report.

Conversely, many worry that the USA holds far less than it reports.

Of interest is the fact that much of the gold held by various nations is in fact held in vaults in New York City.

So although America doesnot own all that god, it does hold it

I don’t think they report their reserves directly as physical gold but as monetary value.

Frankincense and Myrrh come from Yemen. Meaningful figures are not available at present

How much of our gold is plated tungsten?

Didn’t Germany ask for its gold back during ∅bama’s administration?

UK long ton [tonne] = 1.12 US short ton

8133 tonnes = 9108.96 tons or 265,378,000 troy ounces X $4031.08 [ gold spot] = $1,069,759,945,240 [ value of gold held by the US ].

Canadian gold reserves peaked at 1025 tons in the early ‘60s and 50 years of liberal Prime Ministers effectively sold it off with Justin Trudeau selling off the final 3 tons.
