“Then I guess the US Mint better go after every single freaking MC/VISA gift card ever made. Those are effectively private currencies as well.”

If that is true, then wouldn’t a personal check also be a ‘private currency’ as well and shouldn’t the US Mint ‘go after’ anyone who ever wrote one?

Depends on what your definition of “is” is. ;)

The government reneged on silver certs in 1968. They are worth slightly more than a dollar today, if in good condition, to collectors.

Bonus points if you can define a “dollar” today!

“If there is criminal activity (fraud) on the part of Liberty, it will be of the nature of issuing more receipts than you have reserves, or trying to use the coins as margin or other illegal activity involving the utilization of false inventory.”

This is what banks do. It’s called fractional reserve banking.

one post newbie.

Yep!

Suggest entire thread has become a target-rich environment with post -'n-runners, arrogant noobs, double agents and multizot-retreads.

Possible precursor to full-scale assault on multiple fronts.

Advise: proceed with caution.

Advise: Special vigilance for retreads as some have infiltrated FR mail servers, vis-a-vis multi-zot, anti-Fred zealots.

Advise: watch for enemy language, vis-a-vis fiat, unconstitutional...

Suggested mission codephrase: Liberty Scam.

Correction: one post newbie with attitude.

LOL! They might be unhappy with him, but short of wage laws I really don't think they can do a thing. There is a possibility that one will find coins worth more than their face value in circulation, and they are legal tender.

Now, if the employee were to sell the coins, then the IRS might have a way to be involved.

Were I the employee, I would find places to spend money where there were deep price discounts for those who made payment in gold and silver specie, and avoid the tax trap.

Somewhere along the line, though, they will try to tag someone for the difference when they sell the coin for Federal Reserve currency.
