This law lets the Treasury Secretary pay certain annuities in coin. It applies when a U.S. treaty with an Indian tribe requires coin payment. The Secretary is authorized, not required, to do this.
This section is short and narrow.
It lets the Secretary of the Treasury pay certain annuities using coin.
This power applies only when a treaty between the United States and an Indian tribe says that specific annuity payments must be made in coin.
The word "authorized" means the Secretary may do this. The law does not force the Secretary to pay every annuity in coin — it only allows coin payment when a treaty calls for it.
