the note was not the dollar
What constitutes money? how fractional reserves operate as probabilistic fraud (X promises to pay Y, but figures there is only a 10% chance that Y will actually take delivery).
The language on the "notes" 100 years ago was an ordinary sentence, written in plain english...
"the united states of america will pay to the bearer on demand X dollars"

use versus mention
thing versus reference

According to Black's Law Dictionary, money does not embrace notes.
According to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, Federal Reserve Notes are not money per se.

It sounds like you are making the same point made on this post.
