<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1001123, member: 26302&quot;]Of course I was not there, but I am talking about gold and silver metal content of coins and their relative value to each other in monetary systems. A silver coin of 8 grams is worth the same as a gold one worth .5 grams. There is remarkable uniformity throughout the ages, all at 16:1. Copper is all over the board since it was a token currency, and not meant to be a bullion based store of value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: Just want to clarify again I agree with Krispy the ratio now is broken, just wanted to add history behind ratio[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
