Trillion dollar coin
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trillion_dollar_coin
The trillion dollar coin is a concept that emerged during the United States debt-ceiling crisis in 2011,
as a proposed way to bypass any necessity for the United States Congress to raise the country's borrowing limit,
through the minting of very high-value platinum coins.
The concept gained more mainstream attention by late 2012 during the debates over the United States fiscal cliff negotiations and renewed debt-ceiling discussions.
After reaching the headlines during the week of January 7, 2013, use of the trillion dollar coin concept was ultimately rejected by the Federal Reserve and the Treasury.[1]

Emergence of the concept
The concept gained renewed,[24][25] and more mainstream,[26][27] attention by late 2012 as the debt-ceiling limit was being approached once again.
In early January the economist Paul Krugman endorsed the idea[28][29][30] and asserted that opposition to the idea was coming from people unwilling to admit the truth that "money is a social contrivance."[29]

Analysis and reaction[edit]
Paul Krugman said "So minting the coin would be undignified, but so what? At the same time, it would be economically harmless ? and would both avoid catastrophic economic developments and help head off government by blackmail."
He also declared the trillion dollar coin debate to be "the most important fiscal policy debate of our lifetimes".[50]
