I'll point you to a few of Dr. Hudson's many works of money origination which Graeber shared. From 2018, here's "Palatial Credit: Origins of Money and Interest," https://michael-hudson.com/2018/04/palatial-credit-origins-of-money-and-interest/ And from 2020, "Debt, Land and Money, From Polanyi to the New Economic Archaeology," https://michael-hudson.com/2020/09/debt-land-and-money-from-polanyi-to-the-new-economic-archaeology/

Hudson's recently published book, "Temples of Enterprise" and previous "... and forgive them their debts" also go deep into the story of money creation. And he's just written an introduction for the republication of Heinrich Schurtz’s 1898 book "An Outline on the Origins of Money" that he made available for his Patreon members.
