Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book treats of the evolution of the US dollar mark, the history and curiosities of American coinage.The United States dollar, adopted in 1785, was avowedly modelled on the average weight of the Spanish dollar coins in circulation. Thomas Jefferson speaks of the dollar as "a known coin, and the most familiar of all to the minds of the people." No United States dollars were actually coined before the year 1794. We proceed to unfold our data and to show the evolution of the dollar mark by stages so easy and natural, that the conclusion is irresistible... "There are few mathematical symbols the origin of which has given rise to more unrestrained speculation and less real scientific study than has our dollar mark, $. About a dozen different theories have been advanced by men of imaginative minds, but not one of these would-be historians permitted himself to be hampered by the underlying facts. These speculators have dwelt with special fondness upon monogrammatic forms, some of which, it must be admitted, maintain considerable antecedent probability. Breathes there an American with soul so dead that he has not been thrilled with patriotic fervor over the "U. S. theory" which ascribes the origin of the $ mark to the superposition of the letters U and S?..."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of American Coinage The fourth period was from 1853 to 1873. The Act of 1853 reduced the weight of the subsidiary silver coins and limited their coinage to the pleasure of the Government, and limited their legal-tender power to five dollars, but the silver dollar was not affected by the act. The effect of this act was the abandonment of the double standard. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ordinary we use coins and we don't even truly ponder how they advanced from time to time or where they came from. Sometimes, however, we truly do take a second look when we notice a more seasoned date engraved on a coin. In contrast to numerous more seasoned human advancements, we are conscious about. The U. S. has a long practice of putting just the representations of dead individuals on its cash. Why are living individuals never portrayed on U.S. coins. For what reason does the U.S. continuously use representations of dead Presidents rather than living ones on its flowing coins. For what reason weren't living presidents included on the Presidential Dollar coins? Has any living individual at any point showed up on a United States coin? These are normal inquiries you will get answers to when clicking on the Buy button.
