According to "everyone" it is not meant to be known
it is not revealed in any interviews or "fan" websites\publications
I only saw a yellow reflection, indicating gold
but it doesn't make sense that he would "loan out" gold

Nope.  From "Quentin Tarantion And His Films v2.0":

1. What is contained in the briefcase?

  There is no real answer to this and Tarantino has actually said
  that he didn't know what to put in the case so he decided to
  leave it to the viewers to decide.

  There's no truth to the 'friend of a friend' rumour that Quentin
  said the briefcase contains Marsellus' soul.

  One interesting suggestion is that it contains the diamonds from
  'Reservoir Dogs'.



It is, simply, a McGuffin.

Gold is not self-illuminating, though.

Tarantino (sp?) said himself it was a McGuffin.  But if I'm reaching for an explaination, Marsellus's soul is my favorite.  The band-aid on the back of his head and everyone's reaction to it works for me.

So what interest rate do you think he was getting on his soul, or did he just sell it?

Thanks, I don't believe he would loan out gold either
it would fit the story line if he had sold the gold and not been paid

And what valuable lesson did we learn from Pulp Fiction?

Never leave your silenced Mac 10 on the kitchen counter while making pop tarts and taking a dump.

Butch was making PopTarts when he found it. Vega was having a podge and reading "Modesty Blaise" by Peter O'Donnell.

I thought that in Reservoir Dogs they had a buyer for the diamonds named Marcellus.
