United States Coins.

Gold coins of all denominations
are legal tender for any amount. So
are SILVER dollars. EXCEPT the trade
dollar, which, though seven and a
half grains heavier than the standard
dollar, is not legal tender for any
amount. Halves, quarters and
dimes, are legal tender to the amount
of ten dollars. Twenty-cent pieces,
half-dimes and silver three-cent
pieces, are legal tender for amounts
not exceeding five dollars. Nickel
and copper coin from one cent up to
five are legal tender only to the
amount of twenty-five cents. A gold
dollar weighs twenty-five and eight
tenths grains, and it will take about
223 gold dollars to weigh a pound.
When a gold coin is reduced in
weight by use or otherwise more
than one and one-half per cent, or is
in any way mutilated, it is no longer
legal tender and will only be receiv-
ed at the mint for its value in bullion.
When gold coin is presented for pay
ment at the sub-treasury 1t is care
fully inspected, and if found below
the required weight it is STAMPED
with the word slight" and returned
to the. depositor. fhe has been care
full to note of whom he received it he
may recoved the amount for which
he accepted it, or he may send it to
the mint. which will return him
whatever it IS worth for recoinage.
The standard dollars weigh each
412 $40 grains, which is about seven-
ty-one and half pounds for the
weight of a thousand dollars. The
The weight of a thousand dollars in
gold Is only about four and hall
pounds. One hundred dollars in
gold weighs the same as one hundred
and fifty new greenbacks. Green
backs Of a larger denomination are a
little heavier.
