<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1797651, member: 112&quot;]Well kinda, I think it&#039;s more of a trust, a confidence issue than anything else. This sort of thing goes back centuries, and not just with the US. At various periods in history different nations, countries, city states, have managed to capture the trust of the world in their currency. It started with Venice almost a thousand years ago, The Netherlands, Great Britain, and in recent history the US. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>People worldwide just develop a confidence over time that the currency, or in this case bullion coins, truly have the purity that they claim to have. That has often not been true with most nations of the world. So when 1 particular nation develops that trust and confidence then it&#039;s currency is given wider acceptance and often a premium over others.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
