It was submitted to the people, and approved by a vote of thirteen thousand nine hundred and eighteen in its favor and twelve thousand three hundred and sixty-four against its ratification.
All commissions shall be in the name and by authority of the state of Connecticut; shall be sealed with the state seal, signed by the Governour, and attested by the Secretary.

 Currency - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Second, because it created money that did not exist, it increased inflationary pressures, a fact observed by David Hume in the 18th century.
The result is that paper money would often lead to an inflationary bubble, which could collapse if people began demanding hard money, causing the demand for paper notes to fall to zero.
The printing of paper money was also associated with wars, and financing of wars, and therefore regarded as part of maintaining a standing army.
