Colonial Pennsylvania's system did not fail.

The US Greenback of the Civil War period did not fail.

the Germans created a paper "fiat" system in the 1930s when the international banksters wouldn't lend them gold:
"The Magic of Money," Hjalmar Schacht

Germany thus recovered from the depression faster than Britain or the United States. And no, it wasn't by manufacturing armaments, although that figured in later. [In 1939 Hitler fired Schacht and the other bankers who created the MELO program in the 1930s--a successful fiat money program-- who wouldn't finance the armaments he wanted]
