Estonia has a single gold bar in its vault... but cannot sell it

in #estonia6 years ago

The only gold ingot Estonia’s central bank has in storage is not pure enough for financial operations and is more suitable as a museum piece, the bank has revealed.

The piece of gold weighs 11 kilograms and is valued at around €500,000, the head of the financial market division of the Bank of Estonia, Fabio Filipozzi, told Terevisioon, according to Estonian Public Broadcasting (ERR). The gold bar is 97 years old – three years younger than the bank, which celebrated its 100th anniversary on Friday.

I'm from Estonia and it is very sad to see we hold this very small Gold in USA when they are 100% bankrupt, which means we fill not get it back. ... Sorry I say it ... but it is true.
And the most sad makes me this ... If you are a 70 year old pensioner from Estonia, then you don't know that USA is bankrupt.... They know only this how Russia is always guilty of everything... :)) And I not joke :)) this makes me very sad.

And sorry my English week I was try text ok. :)


If it makes you feel any better, I'm from America and I don't trust the USA either. Many Americans don't. Haha.

And your English is fine. I understood your comment easily.
