The Usage Of Silver As Currency

In our days, world currencies are the money, nearly always

. It hasn't been that, before. There were strange currencies, like the salt. It was, yeah. The gold's and the salt's value have been the same. There have been many trading kinds; one of them has been the exchanging trade. The life in those years has been simpler. Ours is more conflicted. But that is another point. Here you can look at the currencies then, especially one of them.

But you must know one other currency- the silver. In the early ages it was a currency, just like the gold. You must know that the silver as a currency is not so unthinkable. It was something like the money for us. His alloys with gold were very distributed. In those times, the silver and gold were used for trading currency because they couldn't be forged. They are really easy for recognizing and hard for forging. And that is the reason for using silver as a currency.

As a chemical element, the silver is pure metal and his properties are really good. It's one of the purest metals and it's not damaging the human organism. There are not damaging doses from the silver. It's not very hard, little harder than the gold. It is melting temp isn't very much, about 900 degrees Celsius. It has the highest electrical and thermal conductivity from the metals. It also has the one of the highest optical reflectivity.

However, the silver is a beautiful metal. It's used for making jewelries. Its price is lower than the gold's. There are many interesting jewelries made from gold. There is the silver medal for second place. There are silver cups. Silver coins for collectors.

Another silver use is the medicine use. Basically, it has a toxic effect on some bacteria and viruses. This is very useful for the people property. Is there a person, who doesn't know about silver water? It's just like the alive and dead water- very good for brain, the skin and others, many others. Aristocrats have been using silver from long time, he is the aristocratic metal.

There are much interesting uses of silver. It can be said for electromagnets and the hi-end sound cables. People use his electrical conductivity for the cables. In the World War II the silver was used for making electromagnets, because of the ending of the cooper in the war.

Silver alloys are used for making instruments, too. The silver has a property to absorb free neutrons. This property of the silver is used from the people. Silver is putted pressurized nuclear reactors.

Compared with gold, silver is cheap. Because of that, we could use silver as a currency. There are reasons that stop us, but the main one is that we invented the money.
