Additional information

Fort Knox has never actually been audited by an independent party — the last full physical verification of the gold reserve was in 1953, under Eisenhower. Cook Islands has built a minor cottage industry around that ambiguity, issuing collector pieces tied to American financial mythology that sell precisely because the underlying mystery is unresolved.
