Answer:

The demand that states make paper currency to supplement coins

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1785 North Carolina had a series of troubles regarding coins that were made with gold and silver, they rarely saw any of them and even paper money was short and it did not supply the needs of the people because it was considered unreliable. With the American Revolution, new demands surfaced and the State of North Carolina authorized nine separate issues of paper money to try to solve the costs of the war and administration. But the US Constitution prohibited States from issuing paper money, with that the North Carolina paper money history ended.
