This volume presents the complete record of the House of Representatives debate on April 10, 1872, concerning the bill to revise and amend laws pertaining to the mints, assay offices, and coinage of the United States. Featuring speeches by prominent congressmen such as Samuel Hooper, William Lewis Stoughton, Fernando Wood, and William Darrah Kelley, the discussions provide invaluable insights into the economic and political considerations shaping American monetary policy during the Reconstruction Era.
The debates offer a detailed examination of the proposed changes to coinage laws, reflecting the legislative process and the diverse opinions within the 42nd Congress. "Coinage Of The United States" serves as a crucial resource for historians, economists, and anyone interested in the evolution of U.S. financial institutions and the legislative history of American currency.
