You keep bringing up Gresham's Law but I think you're neglecting the fact that it only holds in the long term when the bad money and the good money have the same face value.
If they have a floating exchange rate, the good money will drive the value of the bad money towards 0.
Edit: perhaps read the section of the Wikipedia article entitled "reverse of Gresham's law". It argues exactly the point I'm arguing.
