Silver Short Squeeze, page-924

December 2021: Gold silver ratio closes at an historic low of 10:1 before reverting to the ( unmanipulated ) mean of 15:1.
The meaning of money has been systematically destroyed by design, to accept 100 years of a fiat subsitute. This destruction erased the memory of all previous intergenerational faith in gold and silver as the only true money.
Gold and silver are the world's money by choice of all humanity collectively. Not by a money lender, banking oligarcy, or a king, queen, or governing authority of any sovereign state, country, land or principality.
In 1792, the gold/silver price ratio was fixed by law in the United States at 15:1; a ratio of 15.5:1 was enacted in France in 1803. The average gold/silver price ratio during the 20th century, however, was 47:1. After the abandonment of the gold standard in 1971 the ratio dropped as low as 15.13 in December 1979.No manipulation in a truly free market = 15:1. ( "The discovery of massive amounts of silver in the Americas, combined with a number of successive government attempts to manipulate gold and silver prices, led to substantially greater volatility in the ratio throughout the 20th century.""The Roman Empire officially set the ratio at 12:1. The ratio reached 14.2:1 in Venice in 1305 and remained at this level up until 1330 when it fell to 10:1. In 1350 it fell to 9.4:1 in some places across Europe. It climbed back to 12:1 in the 1450s. The U.S. government fixed the ratio at 15:1 with the Coinage Act of 1792.- Quote from Investopedia dot com )
