International Monetary Fund gold reserve refers to 3,217 tonnes of gold held by IMF. It is currently priced at a range of $40 and $50 a troy ounce (1.3 and 1.6 $/g), a price that was fixed in the 1970s before the Nixon government stopped pegging the US dollar to the gold and instead allowed the market forces to set the dollar's worth.
