RE: Silver of the Day #25
That makes a lot more sense.
I didn't realize that the gap between the decision to liquidate the stockpile of silver and the minting the Silver Eagle. So the interesting thing about the rounds is not just the origin of the silver but the debate that would have been taking place at the time.
I don't know how many years it was before they decided they needed to release the silver, but it was a while. The government normally has waiting and debating periods. Things move slowly.... but normally surely.
