    The gold standard is a myth anyway. You can’t actually get that gold even if you do have an original dollar. The number of times it’s been reprinted doesn’t matter.

    The US isn’t backed by gold anymore the Euro was backed by the Dollar. Every currency is simply backed by that country’s economy, that’s why you get hyperinflation in countries with civil unrest or war.
