U S Government Auctioning Two Million Ounces of Gold
The government plans a large scale sale to prevent a flood of foreign gold into the United States. Two million ounces valued about 350 million dollars at 175 dollars an ounce will be offered with a minimum bid near seventy thousand dollars for the smallest qualifying lot. The auction aims to curb imported gold after personal ownership resumes December 31 and to support the U S balance of payments. Gold prices had risen to about 200 dollars earlier but cooled to 175 dollars as the public hesitated.
