Thanks for the chart. Very useful. Looks like gold/silver of 50/1 is about the average level.

Thanks, Bart!

Looks like a bottom in the ratio:

1. In 1920, after WWI just around the time of the massive German inflation.

2. Just after the discontinuation of silver US coinage, around 1964-65

3. Around the time of the gold run up of 1979 -- 80.

Can any conclusions be drawn for this time? All of the above events are related in some way to currency depreciation... but a tight enough relationship to apply now?
