That silver dollar was probably passing through many more hands that didn't bother to call back.

After changing through all those hands, it was still worth a dollar. This is unlike a credit card purchase that depreciates in value with fees after every purchase BC of fees. Think about that the next time you leave a tip.

Where I’m at sales tax is 10%, so every time that dollar passed through ten peoples hands government at one level or other would own it all.
