If you want to back further, I'd have to vote for the Venetian ducat - a standard copied by several other European powers, including the Dutch. Even further back, before 1300, the Islamic dinar and Byzantine solidus (both roughly equal to each other) circulated as the primary gold trade coins of the Dark Ages - not that too many people were trading much of anything way back then. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
