E-Gold is Internet currency. You can "Buy E-Gold" (exchange your local currency for E-Gold), or "Sell E-Gold" (exchange your E-Gold for your local currency). You can also use E-Gold, to purchase products and services over the internet or! sell your products and services and get paid by E-Gold. More details about E-Gold can be found under E-Gold Explained or by visiting their main site 
Before you can Buy or Sell E-Gold, you would need to open an E-Gold Account. Opening an E-Gold account is free!! but you will have no E-Gold in it. The easiest way to fund your E-Gold account would be to sell your products and services in exchange for E-Gold. The other way would be to Buy E-Gold, through an E-Gold Exchange Agent. This is similar to going to a money changer to change your local currency into another currency (example: Euro to USD).
