Personally I think it would be a good idea to have some kind of gold sink to get rid of this excess gold. A way to buy coins for gold is the first thing that comes to mind. Or even pay for holiday mode with gold. If you set the gold to coin rate high enough it would not have much affect on purchases of coins but would add an extra way for players to get items. As coins are server specific it wouldn't affect the newer servers as much, until players were able to accumulate large amounts of gold, which would be later in the server life. It might even be enough enticement to keep players playing longer.
The exchange rate could be anything, but perhaps around 10 million gold/coin would be fair.
