A. Gold Nugget, gold hasn't been used since secretary of treasury Alexander Hamilton made a more reliable currency known as the US. Dollar. Other places soon caught on and began using paper money

Answer:

A. gold nugget

Step-by-step explanation:

Nugget is the name given to a native metal, especially to gold, when it occurs as grains or vales. Gold nuggets are rare and hence even a small nugget is worth one and a half to twice the price of gold, however they can not be considered as representative currencies.
