Cocaine is an illegal commodity, in most of the developed world. It does no good to base ones currency on the value of such.
Gold is handy, legal, and does not get consumed, much.
In my mind, currency should be based on the value of real goods and services people pay for, and that is what Brazil did when they switched to the Real.
