Ia the early days brysrs and sellers
did not for long time recognize any
difference in the value 81 different classes
Of gold dnss Tho frst gold discovered
BY Marshall and his associates was sold
for % an ounce. but ere long rose to SIG.
and remained at that figure for years.
Then no more difference was recognized
in gold dust than to-day in different
sands. Buyers would mix their dust
when sent to the mint and were paid an
average price for it, but they aiterward
learned that come dust was worth 80 and
other $50 or more. The difference in
value is now known TO he due to the fact
that greater or less amount of the baser
