Silver Knights of America

The Silver Knights of America was a short-lived Washington, D.C.-based organisation, founded in early 1895 and reported as defunct by the end of 1896, that campaigned on the issue of free silver, promoting bimetallism as the monetary policy of the United States of America, specifically "to secure in a legal way the free coinage of silver in the United States and to make silver a legal tender for all debts and to collect and spend money for that purpose."
