Henry,

There was an article in the Economist recently that put a figure of 13 Billion $ as the amount of US Dollars that circulate outside of the US system. They refer to it as seigniorage?. I understood it to mean dollars that are used as money in a foreign economy and are unlikely to be ever spent in the US.

While 13B is not chump change, I would not have thought the figure all that big in the total scheme of things.

Are we talking about the same thing?

Michael
