Why don't museums have all the gold and jewels buried with the rulers of ancient Egypt?

Egypt isn't allowing the export of mummies and Egyptian artifacts anymore. Unless you go to the oldest Egyptology museums (London) or Egypt itself, you're pretty much out of luck. Or if your question is where all the jewels and stuff went while the mummies were left alone, that's because of grave robbers. Ancient Egyptian grave robbers only left the mummies for us to find, and about 60 of the mummies found in the valley of the kings were moved by priests to protect them from grave robbers. Ironically, they stripped them of everything they had as payment. Even the gold on the coffins was scraped off. Which was one of the most disrespectful and despicable things to do at the time.
