1t is estimated that the average weekly

made on the recognized basis that a gold
coin in use actually loses a ~tive-hundredth
OF Its weight in n year. The coin is packed
IN bags OF S 5000 each. These bags are
passed from bark to bank, and the constant
friction which is made in handling and
welghlng wears away the edges and faces Of
the coin. SO that. sooner or later, a bag falls
