Yep, thanks for linking. I'll repost the link in the form of the pyramid. I'd suggest that "Gold" is a handle for gold itself plus other PMs, mainly silver (arguably palladium, platinum, rhodium). In the early days of the Republic, we were bimetallic (see Coinage Act 1792), and money was almost all coinage. A good deal from Spain (story there how we got to call US currency the "dollar"). Then, Gresham's law kicked in gear in various ways. However, the Spanish coin dollar was extensively used. And then our government constantly chipped away, chip here, chip there. With occasional quantum jumps.

Thanks for posting the “ money” pyramid. Most will not be able to comprehend, they will argue, rationalize or try to disprove…especially the E money crowd.

…..but the ones whom understand Wealth, will always do fine.

Thank you for your numerous posts to me. After eleven years in prison it is heartening to have these conversations.
