Mark (money) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (440 words)
Mark (from an apparently non-Teutonic word found in all Teutonic languages and Romance languages, and Latinized as marca or marcus) was a measure of weight only for gold and silver, commonly used throughout western Europe and equivalent to 8 oz.
This first Mark came to be known as the Goldmark, which became Papiermark later and eventually suffered hyperinflation in 1923.
The German mark was introduced by the western allies in their zones of occupation in 1948, with the Soviets issuing their own Deutsche Mark (often referred to as the East German Mark or Ostmark, later officially called the "Mark der DDR") later that same year.
money: Definition, Synonyms and Much More from Answers.com (6138 words)
Whether an article is to be regarded as money does not, however, depend on its value as a commodity, except where intrinsic worth is necessary to make it generally acceptable in exchange; the relation between the face value of an object used as money and its commodity value has actually become increasingly remote (see coin).
Money also is typically that which has the least declining marginal utility, meaning that as you accumulate more units of it, each unit is worth about the same as the prior units, and not substantially less.
Money is one of the most central topics studied in economics and forms its most cogent link to finance.
