Representative money is currency that is backed by another form of currency, such as the U.S. dollar being backed by gold. Fiduciary money is currency that is not backed by any physical good but is instead considered legal tender by law. Fiat money is currency that is not backed by any physical good and does not have legal tender status but which people nevertheless accept as payment because they trust the government issuing it.

Can a country have two currencies?

It is possible for a country to have two currencies. A country might issue a second currency in order to address high levels of inflation or to provide more liquidity in the economy. For example, Spain used to have two currencies: the peseta and the sucre. And Angola has three currencies: the kwanza, the convertible kwanza, and the euro. However, there are some potential drawbacks to using multiple currencies. For example, it can be difficult for businesses and consumers to switch between currencies, and multiple currencies can complicate tax collection and other economic measures. Moreover, if one of the currencies loses value relative to the other, it can cause economic hardship.
