limping standard造句

• Contrary to popular belief, the limping standard was not abandoned upon enactment of the Gold Standard Act of 1900.
• This distinguishes it from " limping standard " bimetallism, where both gold and silver are legal tender but only one is freely coined ( e . g ., the moneys of France, Germany, or the United States after 1873 ), and from " trade " bimetallism, where both metals are freely coined but only one is legal tender and the other is used as " trade money " ( e . g ., most moneys in western Europe from the 13th to 18th centuries . ) Economists also distinguish " legal " bimetallism, where the law guarantees these conditions, and " de facto " bimetallism, where gold and silver coins circulate at a fixed rate.
