its hard for me to explain but i will do my best. when you have gold or silver or any other type of metal you use to make your currency worth something and if you go into debt you can use the metal to pay off your debt but the value of your currency goes down when the price of the metal goes down or if the value of the metal goes up then the value of your currency goes up.
