<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fatima, post: 1363739, member: 22143&quot;]I recommend that you read it again.&nbsp; Not the use of the word &quot;<b>but</b>&quot;.&nbsp; as in &quot;make any Thing <b>but</b> gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts&quot;.&nbsp; In modern english this means they can only use silver &amp; gold if they issue their own legal tender.&nbsp;&nbsp; This has been readily accepted to mean the states have the right to coin silver and gold as legal tender.&nbsp; This has been reaffirmed in numerous court decisions made over the years and that is noted in the very link you posted above.&nbsp; (which you must not have read).&nbsp; If you are going to post 25 links to Wikipedia, you ought to read them first.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
