Parliament passed the Currency Act of 1764 to take control of the colonial currency system. It banned the printing of any new currency and forbid the use of the old colonial currency. It also stated that Britain had the power to try any smugglers and would enforce the results of the prosecution to their advantage rather than the colonies', advantage.
