Canadas legal gold coinage is that
of the United States. If man goes
to a Canadian bank to demand gold
for notes or for credit of any kind.
the law says that he shall be paid in
United States gold. Again. if Canadian
gold from Canadian gold mine is to
be sold it must go to the United
States minis. There is no place in
Canada where this can be assayed and
stamped with an official estimate of
its value.
