        Yeah I got a bit confused with the trade aspect, I'd have thought gold was gold regardless of its shape. You have some brilliant articles

        Hiya. When you say "imitation" are you being polite about state currency fraud ?

        It's a bit like the North Koreans issuing "imitation" $ for trade purposes.

        Potentially so, though Offa definitively marked his coin as his own production...
