Constitution - Banks

I am new here and hope to meet knowledgeable people who can answer my questions and help me deepen my understanding.
Just remember that if it is all screwed up then a democrat must be behind it.

I am studying law, and while reading about the history of U.S. law, I came across an issue that raised some questions.
US Law, based on 12th century Justinian jurisprudence where no one is actually concerned with justice. The prosecutor just wants a guilty conviction, the defending attorney just wants his client off no matter what, the judge only cares that the courtroom procedures are followed and the jury deciding knows nothing of the law and just wants to go home.

One of them concerns Article I, Section 10 of the U.S. Constitution, which prohibits states from issuing paper money. This made me wonder: who issues the U.S. dollar today, and why is this considered constitutional?
The Fed prints the money so there is only one issuing standard for all 50 states and all money can be closely controlled and regulated according to a uniform code.
