Synopsis
Excerpt from Refusing Its Own Coin: A Protest a Coin Against Repudiating United State Coin Even Trade Dollars
The legal-tender decision, recently delivered (march 3, 1884) by the Supreme Court of the United States, releases Congress from every constitutional restraint, heretofore supposed to exist, in reference to the issue of coins and notes. Congress is given carte blanche to do as it pleases with our coinage and currency; and it is for the present generation to de fine the limits beyond which Congress shall not go.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, written in 1884, sheds light on the historical dispute of the United States Treasury refusing to accept its own minted coin, the trade dollar. The author argues that the Treasury, under Republican leadership, unjustly discredited and rejected the trade dollar despite its legal status as a United States coin. The author emphasizes that the Treasury has a responsibility to honor its own currency and that the refusal to accept trade dollars sets a dangerous precedent for the government's handling of coinage and currency. The text delves into the history of the trade dollar, its intended use in international trade, and the legal battles surrounding its status as legal tender. The author contends that the Treasury's actions not only undermined the value of the trade dollar but also eroded trust in the government's financial management. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333365882_0
