Ok it says the USA has the most of any country in the central bank "valuts," I'd personally like to know where these central bank vaults are located, but anyways I decided to do some math.

8,139 tonnes = 287,094,775.9 ounces of $GOLD...

287,094,775.90 x $418.80 = $120,235,292,146.94

I have a problem believing that the $GOLD the U.S. central bank vaults have in its possession are only valued at 120.24 billion dollars. Microsoft execs could literally get together and buy the entire $GOLD reserves of the U.S. central banks... it almost has me 2nd guessing my math, but I highly doubt the calculator is wrong, I think the human valuation of $GOLD relative to U.S. dollars is a bit out of whack!
