I double checked the Constitution earlier when I Bob Estes' post, but I decided not to post. Additionally, Congress authorized the US Mint in 1792. There is nowhere in either the US Constitution or the Coinage Act of 2 April 1792 that prevents the issuing of paper money. At that time, paper money was issued by the Bank of the United States and some states and even corporations. -- -- Jerry Feldman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Boston Linux and Unix PGP key id: 537C5846 PGP Key fingerprint: 3D1B 8377 A3C0 A5F2 ECBB CA3B 4607 4319 537C 5846
