This book delves into the tumultuous economic transformations of Western Europe between 1300 and 1500, a period marked by fluctuating silver values. Through painstaking analysis of records and data, the author challenges long-held assumptions about the relationship between silver value and the weight of coins. The book argues that people continued to make payments based on the weight of silver, despite the government's reduction in coin weight, offering a fresh perspective on the economic practices of the time. This groundbreaking work provides valuable insights into the complex interplay of currency, trade, and economic development during a pivotal era in Western history, shedding new light on the foundations of our modern economic systems.
