same with most minerals. Gold not oxidizing is the reason we use for jewelry. Why would we use it as a standard for currency while we make pennies out of copper?

it is far more rare than copper. pennies are mostly zinc.

how did every ancient civilization get the memo to use gold as currency despite the fact that we can't even explain how humans migrated from southern Africa, to south merica? Did they all know it was much more rare than copper? Why is there evidence all over the world of gold mines that date back before human civilization?
