Answer to Question 1

Under a gold exchange standard, central banks' reserves consist of gold and currencies whose price in terms of gold are fixed, and each central bank fixes its exchange rate to a currency with a fixed gold price. The post-WWII currency system was supposed to be a gold exchange standard with the U.S. responsible for fixing the price of gold at 35 per ounce.
