Yup. And since it is Congresses sole authority to coin money, how does the executive get involved?

Hmmm.

Some secrets there, if you look close.

Anyways, I was amazed about two months ago. I got an old style twenty FRN in change. But it looked a bit different...

It is series 1950, signed by John W. Snyder. In excellent condition. Here is the caveat:

"This note is legal tender for all debts, public and private, and is redeemable in lawful money at the United States Treasury or at any Federal Reserve Bank"

I wonder if I take it to the bank, they'll give me an ounce of gold for it.
Don't think so.
