Overview

Why is everything so expensive? How did we go from using gold coins in the 17th century to using paper money today? How did our founding fathers think about setting up the young nation's monetary system? This tour aims to be both educational and entertaining and will cover the historical significance of sites such as the Museum of the American Revolution, the 1st Bank of the United States, the 2nd bank of the United States, The US Mint, Independence Hall, and the Benjamin Franklin's grave.
