Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the history and ongoing debate about the standard measure for currency: silver or gold. The author traces the historical use of both standards and the arguments for and against each. The author discusses the advantages of using gold as a currency standard, such as its portability, durability, and limited supply. The author then explores the arguments for using silver, such as its widespread availability and historical use as a standard of value. The author also examines the concept of bimetallism, in which both gold and silver are used as legal tender, and discusses the challenges of maintaining a stable ratio between the two metals. Through a comprehensive analysis of historical precedents and economic theory, this book provides valuable insights into the complexities and controversies surrounding the choice of a currency standard, making it a thought-provoking read for historians, economists, and anyone interested in the evolution of money.
