Elroy, when I was a little boy in the 1930's one of my uncles handed me a silver dollar (a Morgan dated 1897, I'll never forget). Me and my cousins were making a racket, and the adults wanted to get us out of the house for awhile. It was probably a Sunday afternoon. The uncle told me to "get on down to the drug store for ice cream or something". Off we went. There were 5 of us, we ran. I probably squeezed that Morgan a dozen times before it was spent, and lots of change was left over after paying for all of our ice cream that day. That's my 'definition' of real money.....
