[QUOTE="InfleXion, post: 1240644, member: 29012"]Here is the link I was perusing when I made my last post in regards to this that will show the Constitutional references. [url]http://news.goldseek.com/GoldSeek/1157122920.php[/url] I was a little bit puzzled as Wikipedia does not have in existence some of the articles being referred to here, but I was able to validate at least one of the missing ones from Wikipedia at this link so that doesn't invalidate the goldseek reference. [url]http://press-pubs.uchicago.edu/founders/documents/a1_8_5s10.html[/url] One excerpt from Article 1, Section 8 in particular strikes me: In this context, the word coin has two meanings. Firstly it is synonymous with 'create', but secondly it is synonymous with 'money'. The reason I said this phrase was telling before is because back when it was written there wasn't much distinction between coins and money, because money was coins made of gold and silver.[/QUOTE]
