DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from History of American Coinage The fourth period was from 1853 to 1873. The Act of 1853 reduced the weight of the subsidiary silver coins and limited their coinage to the pleasure of the Government, and limited their legal-tender power to five dollars, but the silver dollar was not affected by the act. The effect of this act was the abandonment of the double standard. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
