During the colonial era, it was far more stable a currency than what was issued at the US state or federal level. It would effectively lead to transactions being made the way it was always done prior to any hypothetical mass counter-stamping. So, any sort of counterfeiting of counter-stamps would have been moot, as the US dollar would literally be fixed to the 8 Reales.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>That makes sense.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
