<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1560658, member: 39&quot;]Nah, guess that Keiser just did not know that a large portion of the Bundesbank gold (certainly not &quot;all&quot; of it ...) was in new York. So for him - he published that video report in March 2008 - it may well have been news. What I just found amusing: In mid-2004 several papers/new sites had articles about the gold and where it is; as I mentioned, there had been plans to sell part of it. Here is one (in German) from <a href="http://www.stern.de/presse/vorab/bundesbank-ueber-deutschen-goldschatz-stern-deutscher-goldschatz-besteht-aus-274708-barren-bundesbank-lehnt-komplettverkauf-ab-533416.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.stern.de/presse/vorab/bundesbank-ueber-deutschen-goldschatz-stern-deutscher-goldschatz-besteht-aus-274708-barren-bundesbank-lehnt-komplettverkauf-ab-533416.html" rel="nofollow">stern.de</a> for example. OK, so Keiser had no idea until four years later - no big deal, this was just a small portion of the report anyway, basically a side note.</p><p><br /></p><p>A year later, Heller (in Numismaster) gets back to the story. Seems he did not know either that part of the gold has been in New York, so he writes &quot;In the past, the Bundesbank has denied that German gold reserves were in the custody of the United States. To now reveal the truth may well cause a great controversy in German political circles.&quot; (<a href="http://www.numismaster.com/ta/numis/Article.jsp?ad=article&amp;ArticleId=7113" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.numismaster.com/ta/numis/Article.jsp?ad=article&amp;ArticleId=7113" rel="nofollow">Source</a>) Umm, writing about something that has been known for a while is not exactly what I call a revelation. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
