Gold is also one of five metals on the periodic table of elements considered permanent since it does not vaporize, it does not dissolve in water, it does not rust, it does not spontaneously combust, and it is not radioactive. It became the perfect money, as did silver. Everything else is just credit. The dollar, the pound, then yen; just credit. Currency. Not money
