<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 307453, member: 112&quot;]The recommendation for the the basic monetary units of a dollar and its decimal coinage ratio and that they be made of copper, silver and gold was made by the Grand Committee in 1785. But it was not approved by Congress until 1786.</p><p><br /></p><p>The web sites you probably looked at do say that there are 293 ways to change a dollar. However, one of the ways listed is the $1 coin. And we were instructed by Phoenix that the dollar coin did not count - thus 292.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bottom line, we must always consider the source of our information found on-line. It is not always accurate for many web sites just copy information they find on other web sites. So if a mistake is made on one, it is just compounded by the others.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
