from the Philadelphia mint TO The Hon. Geo. s Houston,
chairman OF the committee OF ways and means The coin
consists OF fla, ring which there is superscrpton
bat no head, as the place for putting head is cut out.
The only objection to this kind OF coin is the detron
which, u seems 10 me, IT must be very liable. On the
other hand, the coin may be carried srng-a most
convenient and safe way OF carrying money. Halfdol-
lar gold pieces yet called for by any law have been
sent down, and look very pretty. These half-doar gold
pieces would be convenient still than the dollar
pieces, and may be carried in the way"
