That old document? Nobody pays attention to it anymore. It's obviously obsolete; it doesn't even allow government to perform vital roles like controlling health care and regulating carbon dioxide.
As far as I know, the constitution is whatever the courts might say it is, tomorrow. Precedents are out the window on the 2nd amendment, I presume precedents are out the window for everything else, now that we are a nation of men, rather than a nation of laws.
An interest-bearing certificate that was issued by Missouri, and usable in the payment of taxes, was thus ruled to be an unconstitutional bill of credit.
But seriously, I think IOU's are not the same as a "bill of credit." A bill of credit is the creation of money out of thin air. The entity that performs that function in the US is a private corporation known as "Federal Reserve."
Bills of Credit are non-interest-bearing government obligations that circulate as money.
