1882 Jrnl. Statist. Soc. 45 576 The war of the metallisms is still raging... Many conversions of members of the House of Commons must take place before the bimetallism of a false proportion between gold and silver can be victorious.

1896 Q. Jrnl. Econ. 10 447 These matters are not mentioned by Mr. Shaw, probably because he thinks them extraneous to ‘a history of bimetallism’, although they are essential in any history of any ‘metallism’.

b. The theory that all currency should be in the form of metal coins. Also: the theory that any currency should consist of a commodity (usually some metal) so that the exchange value and purchasing power of the commodity (considered independently of its monetary role) determines that of the currency.

ΚΠ

1921 Econ. Jrnl. 31 241 He rejects metallism, and accepts..the possibility..of an entirely a-metallic currency.

1961 Q. Jrnl. Econ. 75 609 The claim that Aristotle launched metallism rests mainly on his discussion of money in the Politics.

1985 Jrnl. Econ. Hist. 45 810 His is not a blind declaration in metallism.
