"... and issuance of paper currency that was not backed by gold or silver. Holders of this paper could only redeem it (in exchange for specie) at the bank’s office."
??? this seems to be saying that paper lacking a gold or silver standard (fiat? or were other standards apart from gold/silver used?) could only be redeemed for gold or silver coin (specie) at the issuing bank.Perhaps it's assumed that the "specie" redeemable by the paper varied?

Some banks were exempted from tax. what were they? and why the "dual banking system"? Did the tax caused the closure of some state banks? if yes, when did this happened? And then when did the state banks cameback with checking account with green back as reserves?Jackzhp17:01, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

1. The title of the article is singular,Act. The 1st sentence announces the topic as plural,Acts. Which is it?
2. The 1st sentence states the scope of the article as two acts, those of1863 and1864. But section headings identify 3 or more acts—1863, 1864, and1865–66. Which is it?
3. The 3rd sentence of the article begins, "The Act …" What Act? No "act," singular, was named.
4. The title, section headingNational Bank Act, and the1863 …1865-66 headings each say NationalBank Acts. The 1st sentence and sectionLegacy say NationalBanking Acts. Which is it?
ForWikipedia to lack clarity on a point of detail is one thing; to be unable to even identify the topic is another.
