- International Gold Standard (19th century): If different countries fix the price of their currencies e in terms of gold this immediately implies that e are fixed. If the Central Bank of two countries stand ready to buy and sell gold at a fixed price in terms of their respective domestic currencies, then there is only one value of e that eliminates the possibility of arbitrage.
