A means of transferring e-gold physically (albeit somewhat awkward) is toLucrative FIBI instruments can be trivially extended to barcode format. Plus, they have the advantage of being truly anonymous, since Lucrative uses a two-way anonymous digital cash protocol, and DMT DBCs do not. DMT has the advantage, in this case, of being apparently deployed, but the disadvantage of operating, apparently, in defiance of governments, and therefore representing a big, painted target.
generate DMT DBC's denominated in e-gold (or for that matter e-palladium,
e-platinum or e-silver, all of which are supported by the DMT/ALTA
platform) and store them as .txt files on some form of media, such as 3.5"
disks or memory sticks, or even as printed out files (the DBC's resemble a
PGP key when printed) to be later scanned via OCR application or entered
manually for redemption.
Perhaps I'm old-fashioned, but when it comes to physical transfers, I still think gold and silver coins are a good idea. You can easily carry enough gold to buy a new BMW.

This of course would only work for a limited number of people at the
current time, as it would require someone who is familiar with and trusts
1) e-gold, 2) the DMT, and 3) you. But it's a way to get it done, absent more convenient and/or more broadly applicable methods.
