FRANKFURT, Nov 18 (Reuters) - Gold and gold receivables held by euro zone central banks fell by 10 million euros to 220.183 billion euros in the week ending Nov. 14, the European Central Bank said on Tuesday.
Net foreign exchange reserves in the Eurosystem of central banks fell by 5.7 billion euros to 366.7 billion euros, the ECB said in its regular weekly consolidated financial statement.
Gold holdings fell as sales of gold by two euro zone central banks outweighed the purchase of gold coin by another. This was consistent with the 2004 Central Bank Gold Agreement, the ECB said.
