(1) Are the Greenbacks all retired, and if so, when retired?
(2) Are the Greenbacks legal tenders?
(3) Are National Bank bills legal tender paper, and if not, on
what basis do they have circulation?
(4) What is meant by “free coinage” as advocated by silver men?
(5) Could the holder of greenbacks during the War convert them
into Government bonds at their face value?
(6) Did the United States Government ever propose to pay the
National Debt in silver or gold at its option, and when? If
not, why not?
(7) If silver coin is not a legal tender, why do silver dollars
pass current at their face value, and why do National Banks pay
out their silver at their counters and refuse to exchange them,
as is usually the case, for gold?
(8) Who determines the value of foreign coins?
Yours,
