Ahh, the infamous Republic of Texas dollars. That is a scam started by the ‘interim president’ of the Republic a few years ago. They may not have been stopped yet because they are only used by a few kooks for trading and not sold as a fake legal tender on a national level.

Nope. That was the Liberty Dollars. There was a RoT dollar for a while, but it wasn’t backed by anything. Even some of the HEB’s in Texas took Liberty Dollars.
