" Does this mean that the bill is not lawful? At the bottom center the same bill says, " Will pay to the bearer on demand X dollars. " (8)…
(9)…Many people believe that money has no value unless(10)…They think that the Federal Reserve note is only a symbol for money, and that real money is the precious metal backing the note. Some people look on money as wealth and believe that it must have intrinsic (内在的)value.
