<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 514630, member: 66"]You're missing the word COLONIAL in those statements that your are seeing as contradictory. There was a difference between the coins struck by Spain, the Spanish silver, and the coins struck by the Spanish colonial possessions. The legal tender laws treated them differently. Spanish silver is not mentioned between 1806 and 1843, but the dollars of Mexico, Peru, Chile, and Central Ameria are specifically listed by the Act of June 25th 1834, while the Act of March 3rd 1843 once again specifies the Spanish Dollars, but makes no menton of the fractional parts, and also speciies the dollars of Mexico and Peru, and adds Bolivia, but the dollars of Chile and Central America ceased to be legal tender. At no point in time were the fractional coins of Mexico, Peru, Chile, Bolivia, or Central America legal tender.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
