  • The Monetary Convention of the 6Th of November 1885, Agreed Upon by the Delegates of the Latin Monetary Union
    Volume II The Heyday of the Gold Standard, 1820-1930 1885 November 6 The Monetary Convention of the 6th of November 1885, agreed upon by the delegates of the Latin Monetary Union. At the urging of the Swiss government, France, Italy, Greece and Switzerland created a monetary union with interchangeable gold and silver currencies. The union had been in incipient form since 1865. Spain, Bulgaria, Romania, and Serbia all adhered to the Union while never officially joining. also allowed the franc to circulate. The role of silver decreased within the system an it effectively became a monometallic system within a few years. The system was suspended during the First World War and eventually ceased to function in 1926. ——— ARTICLE I. France, Greece, Italy, and Switzerland remain constituted a union in respect to the fineness, weight, diameter, and currency of their specie coined of gold and of silver. ARTICLE II.

  • FRENCH GOLD in WWI French Replacement of Gold Coins by Paper Money During WWI by Tony James In, People Look for Security
    FRENCH GOLD IN WWI French replacement of gold coins by paper money during WWI by Tony James in, people look for security. The search for safe investments becomes all con- suming and for thousands of years, gold has been a popular haven. Natu- rally this search for a safe investment also extends to governments and in 1914 the French government was no exception. Before the First World War comm- enced, the Bank of France had printed notes for the equivalent of 1.5 billion French francs to cover initial war expen- ses and also increased its gold reserves. Another law rendered the currency notes of the Bank of France inconvert- ible, to prevent the stampede by depos- itors to their banks and claiming the gold that backed their banknotes that were issued by the Bank of France. Mademoiselle Marguerite Thibary had managed to acquire some 30 francs in gold coins by early July 1915 and she felt it was her patriotic duty to take the coins to the Bank of France and exchange them for banknotes. She received a rather plain insignificant receipt for her efforts, plus of course her 30 francs in banknotes The poster of the gold coin crushing the German soldier shows what the Bank of France wanted was to issue a 10 franc banknote similar to the one opposite and withdraw the 10 franc gold coin. Interestingly the gold coin is dated 1915, however none with this design were minted after 1914. To illustrate the comparative value of the franc in 1914 to today; in 1914 there were 5 francs to the US dollar and one dollar had the buying power of $20 today.
