[...] dès que le cours sur le marché franchit un seuil (pair + frais), il est plus avantageux de «passer par l'or». Il y a naturellement deux seuils : le point de sortie de l'or qui est le cours du change à partir duquel le métal est envoyé au dehors et le point d'entrée qui serait celui à partir duquel l'étranger aurait intérêt à payer en or. [...] Ce mécanisme dit «des points d'or» a bien fonctionné pendant tout le XIXe siècle et jusqu'en 1914. 2, record 1, French, - point%20d%27or
