HISTORY OF GOLD

The value of gold has always been rooted in its relative rarity, easy handling and minting, easy smelting and fabrication, resistance to corrosion and other chemical reactions, and distinctive color. As a precious metal, gold has been used for coinage, jewelry, and other arts. In the past, a gold standard was often implemented as a monetary policy, but gold coins ceased to be minted as a circulating currency in the 1930s, and the world gold standard was abandoned for a fiat currency system after 1976. Now, as throughout history, gold is valued in all of it’s forms. It has never been easier to sell gold in CT!
