“The Currency Act was British legislation passed in 1764 that prohibited all American colonies from issuing paper money as legal tender.
Colonists were forced to pay off British debts in specie. I.e. gold and silver which was scarce in the colonies.

“Petrodollars are U.S. dollars earned by oil-exporting countries from the sale of crude oil to the global market.

Gold has recently replaced the U.S. dollar as the biggest reserve currency due to wasteful government spending and deceptive financial engineering accross Western countries.
