The Bretton Woods Agreement
In 1967, a Chicago bank refused a college professor by the name of Milton Friedman a loan in pound sterling because he had intended to use the funds to short the British currency. Friedman, he had perceived sterling to be priced too high against the dollar, wanted to sell the currency, then later buy it back to repay the bank after the currency declined, thus pocketing a quick profit. The bank's refusal to grant the loan was due to the Bretton Woods Agreement, established twenty years earlier, which fixed national currencies against the dollar, and set the dollar at a rate of $35 per ounce of gold. The Bretton Woods Agreement, set up in 1944, aimed at installing international monetary stability by preventing money from fleeing across nations, and restricting speculation in the world currencies Prior to the Agreement, the gold exchange standardprevailing between 1876 and World War Idominated the international economic system. Under the gold. exchange, currencies gained a new phase of stability as they were backed by the price of gold. It abolished the age-old practice used by kings and rulers of arbitrarily debasing money and triggering inflation. But the gold exchange standard didn't lack faults. As an economy strengthened, it would import heavily from abroad until it ran down its gold reserves required to back its money. As a result, money supply would shrink, interest rates rose and economic activity slowed to the extent of recession. Ultimately, prices of goods had hit bottom, appearing attractive to other nations, which would rush into buying sprees that injected the economy with gold until it increased its money supply, and drive down interest rates and recreate wealth into the economy. Such boom-bust patterns prevailed throughout the gold standard until the outbreak of World War I interrupted trade flows and the free movement of gold.

Papua New Guinea
Home Currency CURRENCY HISTORY Papua New Guineans had been living in rural areas as subsistence farmers where a family or clan is self sufficient in producing what they need for for their own consumption. Goods they could not produce or make themselves were exchanged for goods they had in abundance. However during, the colonial period PNG evolved from a subsistence to a markedly monetary economy. The transition from a subsistence based to a modern exchange economy was part of the inevitable cultural and social changes which occur within a society over time. In this transformation of economic processes PNG became urburnised, industrialised and monetised. This was the era in which the people learnt to use money in its different traditional forms until it finally became the Kina and Toea we know today.
TRADITIONAL MONIES In PNG where there are more than 700 different languages and traditional cultures, there are also many different types of traditional monies used for exchange of goods. These included the Tabu shells, pig tusks, kinas and toeas. Many of this traditional monies or currencies functioned as a means of payment, as an accepted standard of value and as a store of wealth. It was amongst all this traditional monies used up in the highlands, in the coastal areas and along the New Guinea Islands regions that the name Kina and Toea was selected for our national Currencies. The word 'Kina' in found in both Pidgin and Kuanua languages and it refers to the caluable pearl shell used widely for trading in both the Coastal and Highlands areas of PNG. This shell is traded from the coastal areas into the highlands and is a traditional store of wealth.

Civil War
Rare gold certificate, payable in gold coin, with the head of Lincoln. In 1861, to finance the Civil War, Congress authorized Demand Notesthe first issue of paper money by the government since the Continentals. These Notes were printed in $5, $10, and $20 denominations, redeemable in coins on demand, and green in colorhence the name "greenbacks." A total of about $10 million was issued, a relatively small series. These notes, and all paper money issued since 1861, are still valid and redeemable in current cash at face value. While most early money is now in the hands of collectors or museums, it is important to note the record of currency stability which this represents. In 1862, Congress discontinued issuing Demand Notes and issued Legal Tender Notes, also known as United States Notes. These new notesissued in denominations from $1 to $1,000 (later $5,000 and $10,000)were the first national currency used as legal tender for most public and private debts. The design of these notes incorporated a Treasury seal, fine-line engraving, intricate geometric lathe work patterns, and later incorporated various forms of distinctive cotton and linen papers with embedded red and blue fibers. Confidence in the notes waned somewhat when the Treasury stopped redeeming them in coins during the Civil War to save gold and silver. However, redemption resumed in 1879 following the war.

A currency is a unit of exchange, facilitating the transfer of goods and services. It is a form of money, where money is defined as a medium of exchange rather than e.g. a store of value. A currency zone is a country or region in which a specific currency is the dominant medium of exchange. To facilitate trade between currency zones, there are exchange rates i.e. prices at which currencies (and the goods and services of individual currency zones) can be exchanged against each other. Modern currencies can be classified as either floating currencies or fixed currencies based on their exchange rate regime. In most cases, each country "has" monopoly control over its own currency. Member countries of the European Monetary Union are a notable exception to this rule, as they have ceded control of monetary policy to the European Central Bank.

    CURRENCY HISTORY Here's how it all started: One of the fastest growing areas of interest for numismatic collectors is in United States paper money. Originally issued by the colonies prior to the American Revolution, the beginnings of the United States currency predate the birth of the nation. The Massachusetts Bay Colony was among the first issuers of currency in 1690, used to pay the troops for a military venture into Canada. South Carolina, New York, New Hampshire, Connecticut, New Jersey , Rhode Island and North Carolina followed suit soon afterward to compensate their military personnel for defending their frontiers against the American Indians. In 1775, the Continental Congress authorized the issue of Continental Currency, backed by the anticipated revenue to be derived from taxation. These notes soon became devalued to the point of being virtually worthless. In 1785, the Continental Congress decreed that the monetary system of our fledgling country would be based on the dollar, but the first dollar coin was not to be issued until 1794. Nonetheless, the system of measurement was established. In 1836. about 1,600 privately owned banks operating under state charters were authorized to issue currency, under a very minimal amount of regulation. This resulted in mass confusion with over 30,000 variations in design. Confusion became even worse after the failure of some of these institutions.
