<h3>What is commodity money?</h3>
Money that derives its worth from the commodity from which it is made is known as commodity money.
Commodity money is made up of things that have worth or utility beyond only being exchangeable for products (intrinsic value).
This contrasts with fiat money, which derives its value from having been established as money by governmentregulation, and representationalmoney, which has no intrinsic worth but instead represents something valuable like gold or silver, which can be exchanged.
<h3>What is flat money?</h3>
A form of currency known as fiat money is not backed by any physical good, like gold or silver.
Usually, the government declares something to be legal tender through a decree.
Fiat money has occasionally been created throughout history by regional banks and other organizations.
