DEF

Sistema monetario que tiene su encaje metálico en plata. En realidad, nunca existió un patrón plata originario, sino por degradación del patrón bimetálico («patrón cojo») al quedar la plata - tras la inconvertibilidad oro - como único metal para la convertibilidad de los billetes de banco; pero con un valor plata inferior al valor facial de los billetes.
