On paper, yes but gold beats diamonds in so many ways. For a start, cut a gold bar in half and each half is worth half of the total. Can't do that with diamonds. Never mind that gold is harder to come by.

The Chinese have been churning out "novelty" ounce bars and coins for a few years too. Still, it's probably the only way to satisfy demand. There isn't enough gold to cover the claims on ownership currently in circulation.
