In the case of the Liberty Dollar they are basically selling silver for much more than the market price of the silver. I love my paper backed by nothing. I can convert it into silver anytime I want, without a markup by con artists. And that paper seemed to be good enough for NotHaus. He had a bank account full of them, fraudulently obtained from suckers.

Anybody can sell me anything for more than it's worth.
I am curious to find out why they prosecuted him for fraud rather than for coining money, which is a right specifically granted to the Congress in the Constitution.
