Agreed, Daz has summed this up pretty well. I'd maybe add the point that elixir can be quite valuable when farming at high level due to the need for more expensive armies and/or spells needed to get the gold/de.Quote:

A technical analysis of the term 'economy' is not required to see this.
I never considered the idea that CoC doesnt have an economy, some interesting semantic arguments in this thread.Quote:

I probably would use the word 'economy' to describe it, but that wasn't my point.Quote:

This question can be answered without anyone getting any textbooks out
Most People
1) DE is rarest
2) Gold is second
3) Elixir is not hard to come by
In the higher ranges...
allot harder to say... but I'd say elixir outpaces gold for two reasons. Need for more of it to create armies, and on the gold side of it, the loot bonus is 100% profit.
Then their is DE which is way more available higher up.... but then I'd say it all depends on you. If you going for Super Heros then its still quite valuable. Or if you massing up witches for attacks. But if not, then their is plenty extra to go around
