Treasury Eyes Expanded Fractional Coin Circulation In 1878
In 1878 the Treasury sought authority to purchase silver bullion and fractional coins to redeem outstanding fractional paper. The aim was to circulate coins not exceeding several million, as rising circulation strained the Treasury with coins reentering circulation during specie payments. By July 1884 the Treasury held about $12,000,000, later reduced to $600,000, with further removals. Directors urged Congress for broader coinage power while Philadelphia mint presses ran at half capacity for nickels.
