International Gold Standard (19th century): If different countries fix the price of their currencies e in terms of gold this immediately implies that e are fixed. If the Central Bank of two countries stand ready to buy and sell gold at a fixed price in terms of their respective domestic currencies, then there is only one value of e that eliminates the possibility of arbitrage. Suppose that S100 buys 1 ounce of gold and 100 pounds buys lounce of gold. Under fixed exchange rates, this implies that IS buys Ipound. Explains what would happen (arbitrageurs' action and result) if instead e-1S buys 2 pounds
