Alaska Senate Committee Passes Bill to Make Gold and Silver Legal Tender in the State

The proposed law would make gold and silver specie legal tender in the state, recognizing it as a medium of exchange for the payment of debts. In effect, gold and silver specie would be treated as money, rather than a mere investment vehicle, putting it on par with Federal Reserve notes in Alaska.
