Paper Money & Coin Collecting News

The alternative, fiat currency, has resulted in the demise of prosperous civilizations since Roman times. The word "fiat" means by government edict. It is simply impossible for a government to magically proclaim sound money and reliable purchasing power of wealth with paper currency. This fact prompts Americans to consider investing in gold coins.

Whether a coin is made by who it appears to be was of secondary importance compared to whether it contains the correct amount of metal, that is, right weight and fineness. Genuine appearance was simply a convenient shortcut to avoid time-consuming tests in everyday transactions.
