The privileges and immunities clause of Article IV prevents states from discriminating against nonresidents, ensuring that all citizens of other states are entitled to the same privileges and immunities as citizens of that state. This includes protection of property rights, access to courts, and other benefits of citizenship. It does not require states to recognize the laws of other states or provide a uniform standard of benefits and entitlements. It also does not deal with the coining of money, which is addressed in Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution.
