	Electrum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Electrum was used in as early as the third millennium BCE in Old Kingdom Egypt, sometimes as an exterior coating to the pyramidions atop ancient Egyptian pyramids.
		Electrum is believed to have been used in coins circa 600 BC in Lydia under the reign of Alyattes, infrequently referred to as Alyattes II as a result of a possible previous king Alyattes, though it is far from certain that this figure was a king of Lydia or even existed.
		Electrum was much better for coinage than gold, mostly because it was harder and more durable, but also because techniques for refining gold were not widespread at the time.

	Electrum
		Electrum is a naturally occurring alloy of gold and silver.
		In most electrum deposits there will also be some amounts of copper, this can vary up to as much as about 20% in some places.

		The Greek historian Herodotus, writing in the 5th century BC famously stated that 'the Lydians were the first people we know to have struck and used coinage of silver and gold.' He is almost correct.
		The earliest coins were in fact made from electrum, an alloy of gold and silver but, on the evidence of their findspots, do seem to belong to this part of the world.
		The earliest known hoard of electrum coins (and thus the earliest known coin hoard) was found buried in a small pot during the British Museum's excavations of the Artemision, or Temple of Artemis at Ephesus in 1904-5.

	Electrum Coins
		Numismatists firmly believe that the first coins were made of electrum, a naturally-occuring alloy mostly of gold and silver, with traces of other metals.
		Dating from about 650 BC, these electrum coins were eclipsed about 100 years later by coins of gold and coins of silver.
		The principle source of electrum staters in archaic and classical times was Kyzikos, a colony of Miletos, on the southern shore of the Propontis, in Mysia.

	World's First Coin - Lydian Trite - Alyattes
		Other electrum pieces without a pictorial design but instead with an empty field, pellets, striations, parallel lines, or crisscrossing lines across their obverse were minted at about the same times as Lydian Lions.
		The electrum plating has worn off in large areas, leaving the silver interior exposed, particularly at the high points of the obverse and reverse, the recesses of the incuse punch on the reverse, and the countermarks.
		The uncertain intrinsic value of electrum was the primary reason it was largely superseded as a numismatic metal by silver and to a lesser extent until the time of Alexander the Great by gold.

	Electrum Partners - Proprietry Technology
		The investment characteristics of leased assets with creditworthy lessees are quite different from the investment characteristics of owner-occupied farms and residences, yet financial intermediaries limit asset investors to variations on a single financing theme for all leveraged property.
		Electrum Partners addressed this problem by designing and developing a line of proprietary financial and investment products that use the investment characteristics of leased property to improve the risk-reward investment trade-off for all classes of capital.
		The possibility of such products arose when Richard Graff, one of the principals of Electrum Partners, created a conceptual investment model for leased property that makes it possible to describe and quantify differences in the investment characteristics between leased and unleased property.

		Either the Lydians or Greeks along the coast of present day Turkey were most likely the first to produce coins, back in the late seventh century.
		These consisted of lumps of a metal called electrum (a mixture of gold and silver) stamped with an official impression to guarantee the coin was of a certain weight.
		Aegina picked up on this idea and improved upon it by stamping coins of (relatively) pure silver instead electrum, which contained varying proportions of gold and silver.

		[a bundle of electrons that] appears to be produced by the application of a high electrical field between a cathode and an anode." He has given it the name "Electrum Validum" (EV), meaning "strong electron", from the Greek "elektron" (electronic charge) and the Latin "valere" (to be strong, having power to unite).
		Ken Shoulders suggests that EVs travel in an electromagnetic container, a potential well with a depth of about 2 kv.
