When the Jamestown colony was built in Virginia, all the colonists were looking for was gold. When there was no gold found except for pyrite (fake gold), the colonists discovered the cash crop of tobacco. The trade of tobacco raised their profits so much that King James called tobacco the "golden leaf" meaning that the tobacco was there form of gold.
