Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate relationship between metallic currency and the prosperity of the United States, particularly focusing on the impact of coinage charges on the flow of gold and silver. The author, an expert in currency and economic matters, argues that the United States' high mintage charges for converting gold bullion into coins have resulted in a "Seignorage," essentially a tax on gold, driving gold coins out of circulation and hindering the nation's economic growth. Additionally, the book examines the international debate surrounding the Double versus Single (Gold) Valuation of currencies, exploring the historical and practical implications of both systems. The author provides a comprehensive analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of each approach, considering factors such as stability, convenience, and global trade. Through meticulous research and a deep understanding of currency dynamics, this book offers valuable insights into the complex interplay between metallic money, economic policy, and international commerce.
