From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"The exact nature of the evolution of money varies significantly across time and place, though it is believed by historians that gold's high value for its utility, density, resistance to corrosion, uniformity and easy divisibility made it useful as both a store of value, and a unit of account for stored value of other kinds."

This is a long, confusing sentence. I don't think this is quite ready for the front page yet. Jonathunder 00:20, 2005 Jan 18 (UTC)

[edit] Typo

In the latter half of the paragraph, there's a point where the word "both" is duplicated: "...and easy divisibility made it useful both both as a store of value...". Since the page is protected, I figured I'd post this here and hope someone sees it. - Eisnel 01:28, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)

I quashed it. →Raul654 01:57, Jan 21, 2005 (UTC)
