The movement that called for the unlimited minting of silver coins is known as the Free Silver movement. It gained prominence in the late 19th century in the United States, advocating for the adoption of a bimetallic standard that would include both gold and silver to increase the money supply and combat deflation. Supporters believed that this would help farmers and working-class citizens by making it easier to pay off debts. The movement was a key issue in the 1896 presidential election, notably championed by William Jennings Bryan.
