Trouble is, no one is accepting those Civil War notes anymore.

What do you mean "us," Krusty? You're just a poor old geezer with a
deeply seated superiority complex and a shitload of imaginary
upper-class ancestors.
But let's assume for a second that you're related to all those feudal
lords, statesmen, and explorers you keep hiding behind. What have YOU
done that's of any value to anybody? What's your claim to a place in
history books? Who's going to remember your name?
I thought so.

Rich White people with old money don't get sacked, they re-arrange
their capital and restart their core business which their ancestors
did for centuries.
My ancestors were into textiles, wool felting and weaving in Flanders
and took the industry to Cornwall, where they taught the local
peasants to weave, then they took the business to New England where it
was central to the economy until the American Civil War cut off the
supply of cotton and the economic confusion during Reconstruction cut
off credit.
Buying money from foreignors to keep an economy running was a bad idea
then, and it's a bad idea now.
