Currency debasement


Original unsourced nonsense. Factual parts already covered in Counterfeit. The rest is utter speculation that belongs in an essay and not an article. Prod contested without reason. MartinDK 13:14, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
 * It is pretty funny...I archived a copy but this is not encyclopedic and should be deleted. --SonicChao talk 13:31, 24 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete Is it real or merely fake crankery? Whatever the case, this article should be withdrawn from circulation pretty currently. --Folantin 14:02, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Fiat currency. Currency debasement with metal coinage is documented (the Romans were famous for it), but this article doesn't address that. Tubezone 16:10, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - WTF? Loathfully POV essay. Moreschi 16:37, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete terrible article. Rever e ndG 23:02, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong delete - crank. Currency debasement has a specific meaning in economics; this isn't it. Pete Fenelon 02:10, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
