If we want to research the specific meaning, the economic and social background which Gresham lived is investigated deeply. Through the analysis, the article thinks Gresham's Law means bad money with light weight and bad color drives out good money with enough weight and good color. In addition, the tenable condition of Gresham's Law is specifically analyzed.
