How Uncle Sam Makes Money.

PORTLAND, August p, 1905. A
million pennies day-that is the
capacity OF a strange machine which
Uncle Sam used in the Philadelphia
mint to count the coin of smallest
value made by the Government. The
machine, known as a counting table,
is exhibited in the Government build.
ing as part of Uncle Sans $500, 900
display on the Peninsula in Guilds
Lake at the Lewis and Clark EXPOSE
ton.
The counting board is about as
large large as big kneading board
such as natives use. The surface OF it
is wide enough to hold row OF forty
pennies. When the pennies are to be
counted, several thousand are heaped
onto the board, which is placed above
a hopper. Then an operator tips the
board backward and forward, and
sideways, SO that the pennies slide
about, and finally settle in the grooves
made by the brass partition strips.
When the board is full, there are 1000
pennies on it. 1t is then dumped
into receptacle just outside the hop.
per, and the pennies which have slipped
Oft the board into the hopper are
caught by box underneath. PEN
MES are coined only at the Philadelphia
mint, and the Govern ment finds the
coming OF them profitable, because
the. value of the metal they contain is
only about three-fourths of cent.
The upsetting machine is another
interesting mechanical continuance.
1t is used for turning the edges of
coins. The coin discs, of the proper
size and thickness, but with their
edges still rough, are put into tubes
to fit them. These tubes are placed
upright beside Handicapped, revolv-
ing table. At each revolution of the
table one of the discs drops into
groove between the table and an outer
shell, and the pressure on the edges of
the disc makes them smooth.
Stamping the coins is the last pro-
cess, and this is done by means of
great machine which weighs sixteen
tons and costs $4,000. There are
twenty.four such machines in the
Philadelphia mint. The discs which
are to be coins are placed in tube,
as in the case of the upsetting
machine. Two steel fingers take hold
Of the bottom disc, and move it over to
the die. Then the die above presses
down on the disc, so that this i'm
preston is made on both sides, At
the same time, the edges OF the disc
are milled, and when the upper
die raises, the steel fingers push the
finished coin out OF the way and bring
u disc into position.
The machine at the Portland Ex-
position, which is used in stamping
twenty-dollar gold pieces, has a capac-
ity OF ninety minute. A pressure OF
$50 tons is necessary, to stamp a
silver dollar. but 100 tons pressure will
stamp double eagle. Smaller coins
require less pressure.
In conn ecton with the exhibit at
the Western Worlds Fair, coins OF
this years make in all denomina atoms,
except the silver dollar, are displayed.
None of the minis are now coming
