Well... once the government confiscates the silver that backed his currency, people that hold liberty dollars will have been defrauded. Hence he is guilty. /s

The coins are made of silver.

LOL

Actually, when they confiscated gold in the first Great Depression, they did it in steps.

First, they front ran the public and started removing gold coins from the banks.

Then they asked people to turn in their coins, and gave them ‘gold certificates’ back!!!

THEN they SIX MONTHS LATER said, no you can’t exchange your ‘gold certificates’ for gold anymore. Here have some of this, federal reserve notes instead.

THEN they almost doubled the value of gold, and the people had HALF their earnings stolen from them, at the stroke of a pen.
