appears that the neness of the English gold actually

actual change has been made in the value other than
they shall be legal tender without the delay and expense
of coinage Now, by experimenting in large way at the

found that owing to the dirt and dust which attaches to

must be made in re-coining. Now as they be-
legal tender without this expense and delay the
value is actually raised by all the difference between
being current and uncurrent.
