Correct, but regulating the value of coined money, which has a specific historical meaning discussed elsewhere in the thread, is still not the power to force people to take the Government’s paper.

Perhaps after the Nation’s experiment with fiat money comes to the same place as every other such experiment in history, they can do an even clearer job of writing the Constitution next time around.
