Can gold be traded back into resources at the bank or a harbor?
The rulebook and a Kosmos reply say gold only buys, but a Mayfair reply and other posters read it otherwise.

Probably not. The rulebook only lets you spend 2 gold for a resource of your choice up to twice per turn, and Kosmos' rules editor says gold is not traded at 4:1 or 3:1 bank rates. A Mayfair reply and some players read it as allowing bank trades of gold after the two buys, so the sources are not unanimous.
