I had never heard of this but I am intensely interested!! Tis will now become one of the pieces I want to get right along side The NORFED Liberty Dollars. I don't know if you are familiar with these but I think you would love the story as well. I always admire when people try to build from principle even though there are so many that just want principle to die. They were brought to life by Von NotHaus and represented a move back to actual monetary policy. Heres a link if you wanted to check it out
