AN ASPIRING POET.
A Swiss Doubloon,

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Referring to the paragraph entitled can In
teresting Coin" and signed p, Buffalo. August
5, 1892, which appeared in your issue Of the 9Th
instant, beg to say that from the description
given l recognize the coin in question to be a
''doubloon" (dublone), struck in my native
city of Berne, Switzerland.
The coin, which was current until about the
year 1852, was Of the value of sixteen francs,
old style, equal to about twenty-three francs Of
present currency. and was one of the three gold
coins issued by the republic of Berne, the in
scription being Respublica Bernensis, not de
Bernensis. as stated.
The other two coins were ducats, Of half the
value Of doubloons, and double doubloons
have seen numbers of each when l was n boy
and Maj. kloss. late councillor Of the Swiss le-
cation in this city, had ducat and doubloon
in his possession.
However, Bernese gold coins of 1896. or gen.
orally OF last century, probably are scarce. as
the French, during their occupation Of the
country in 1793-1799, looted every one they
could lay their hands on. L. L. X.
