FACTS ABOUT THE COINAGE.
Director Of the Mint Gives informa-
ton as to Old and New Issues.

Director Of the Mint Gives informa-
ton as to Old and New Issues.
The director of the mint is called
on to answer such a wide range OF
questions concerning the values of
old and new coins and medals that
he has found it necessary to issue
circulars covering matters of this
SORT. 1t tells some interesting facts.
1t appears that the mint does not buy
old coins or paper money except some
rare colonial coins in fine condition,
which are desired for the mint cabi-
net.
Mutilated or uncurrent United
States gold and silver coin is pur-
chased as bullion. The mint has no
pattern pieces for sale. The govern
ment pays no premium for the return
of any of its coins or paper money.
New coins cannot be struck until au-
tboriZed by an act of congress. The
mint supplies United States coins on
ly and not Of any past date. The $50
gold piece and the half-dollar and
qIiarter-dollar pieces in gold were
truck by private parties on the Cali
fornia coast during the 1849 period
ard not by the United States gov
eminent.
The coinage of the following coins
ceased in the years named: Half and
1-cent. copper, in 1857; 1-cent, nickel.
1864; half-dime and cents, silver.
and 2 cents bronze, in 1873; 20 cents,
silver. 1878; trade dollars. 1888; 81
and SO. gold, and 3 cents, nickel. 1889.

in 1898. The Lafayette dollar was
struck in 1899, the date on the coin
$4,000 being that of the unwilling of
the memorial.
There are certain markings on ev-
cry United States coin that enable
the place Of its coinage to be located.
Those struck at the Philadelphia mint
have no Elint mark, but those struck
at all other mints are distinguish by
a small letter on the reverse, near the
bottom. These letters are: c for
Charlotte, N. c., discontinued in 1861;
&C for Carson City. New, discontinued
In 1893; D for Dahlonega, Ga, discon-
tinued in 1861; o for New Orleans
and for San Francisco.
The coins of the United States cow
authorized by law are: In gold, dou-

ter eagle; in silver. half-dollar. quar-
ter.dolla. and dime; minor. scent.
nickel ard 1 cent bronze. A person
may buy a proof set Of gold coins
from the mint for $3.50 and proof
set of silver and minor coins for
$1.50. When the business of the

from dies furnished by individuals.

value of the metal.

Furs Used as Trimmings.

Many cloth and velvet gowns have
an introduction of beaver used about
the corsage and sleeves, while one
well-known furrier shows a few at
tractive long-basqued coats in dyed
moleskin. which might easily be mis-.
taken for sealskin, but with a much
more brilliant sheen. The coat was
light. warm and attractive. besides be-
ing extremely becoming. Ermine is
being used again. combined with beav-
err or sable. while chincilla is likely to
be worn much more than it was last
winter Lace is being used on fur
models. but more as a plated lining
at the base of shoulder capes or
sleeves.
