The Republic of Texas
de bene esse: literally, of well-being, morally acceptable but subject to future validation or exception
In
1839, the Republic of Texas printed its own currency known as the Texas
dollar, or the "redback." Overprinting of these bills caused severe
inflation, and the country's debts eventually led to their annexation
into the Union as the 28th state. Learn more about the past through
