THE STORY OF THE GUINEA.
England Has Used the Gold Stand.
ard Since the Year lis.

Nineteenth Century.
In 1856 1t was enacted that all persons
might bring their gold and silver to the
mint to be coined free of charge. By the
mint indentures the gold guinea was coined
to be Of the value of 20s in silver, but no
legal ratio was fixed between the coins; the
public was to receive them at such rating
as il pleased. GuineaS, instead of being
current at 20s, according to the mint in
dentures, passed current at DDS. The silver
coins became constantly more degraded, I'M
til at last they were clipped down to half
their weight After the great recoinage by
William III guineas were successfully re-
duced by proclamation, and treasury war
rant fixed that they should be received at
the rate of 2ls Cd at the treasury But
still all the good silver coin disappeared
from circulation as soon as 1T was issued
from the mint.
In it's perpiexity the government referred
the whole matter to Newton, who showed
that the true value of the guinea only
20S Sd. according to the market value of the
the good silver was at once exported He
recommended that the guinea should be re-
was accordingly done; but the guinea was
still overrated by 4d, and the consequence
was that there was no good silver in circu-
lation during the whole of the century. 1t
merchants that all obligations became pay
able in gold only; so, ever since lis Eng
land has become a gold monometallic coun-
try. and in public estimation the standard
was changed from silver to gold, although
the obsolete aud cffete words of bimetallisrl
fingered on the statute book for another
hundred years.
At the great recoinage of 1885, that which
had become established by mercantile usage
enacted by law. Gold was adopted as
the sole standard, and silver was coined
only in limited amounts, and made legal
tender for only 4os. Ever since then Eng

of coinage ever devised by the ingenuity
OF man, and has been perfectly free from
all coinage troubles.
