What the Bible says about Dilution by Baser Metals
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Isaiah 1:22 Though this speaks primarily of the people's spiritual condition, it certainly applies literally too. So, a sign of Judah's decline was the devaluation of her currency; money would not buy what it used to be able to purchase. The illustration pictures what had once been pure silver and of full value is now so diluted by baser metals that it is essentially worthless. The debasing of currency, then, becomes a recognizable precursor of decline and eventual national collapse. Richard T. Ritenbaugh Economics in Prophecy Related Topics: Economics in Prophecy
