The History of Money in the United States

There was no national currency in the United States before 1862 when Lincoln said, listen, we need all these things to unify us. This is why there were duels in the southern United States. Men didn't fight for their honor. They fought for their cash for the worth of their notes. If you walk into a place and they say no cash taken, you are required to take this bill to discharge a debt. I would have paid cash for this first edition copy of fucking tender. Thank you.
