Under the Articles of Confederation, the national government had very limited economic powers. It did **not** have the authority to impose taxes, regulate interstate commerce, or impose tariffs on imports. However, it could issue currency, although this authority was also problematic due to lack of enforcement and reliance on state cooperation.

Therefore, the correct answer is: **issuing currency**.
