I couldn't help but notice the irony regarding the image below, which is a plate block of the Banking and Commerce issue. Can you see it?

How about the irony that the coins pictured are from a banking system that was on the gold standard which by the time these stamps were issued, we had abandoned four before. I am sure that is not coincidental.

I am not saying we should still be on the gold standard but I wonder if the old coins were meant as symbolic of security of the banking system when the dollar was no longer secured to gold.
