Lesser Flamingo

Flamingos are a familiar sight even to those who have never seen one in real life. The U.S. dollar first emerged as an important international reserve currency in the 1920s, displacing the British pound sterling as it emerged from the First World War relatively unscathed and since the United States was a significant recipient of wartime gold inflows.

However, silver and gold coins continued to be issued, resulting in the depreciation of the newly printed notes through Gresham's Law In 1869, Supreme Court ruled in Hepburn v. Griswold that Congress could not require creditors to accept United States Notes, but overturned that ruling the next year in the Legal Tender Cases In 1875, Congress passed the Specie Payment Resumption Act , requiring the Treasury to allow U.S. Notes to be redeemed for gold after January 1, 1879.

The U.S. Constitution provides that Congress shall have the power to "borrow money on the credit of the United States." 47 Congress has exercised that power by authorizing Federal Reserve Banks to issue Federal Reserve Notes Those notes are "obligations of the United States" and "shall be redeemed in lawful money on demand at the Treasury Department of the United States, in the city of Washington, District of Columbia, or at any Federal Reserve bank".

Of course, being avid crafters and DIY enthusiasts, we've always loved combining our creative skills with other things we adore, which is why we can often be found browsing Bookmarks the Internet for flamingo themed crafts that, whether we're making it ourselves or with our kids, will be a blast to create and to use or display afterwards.
