THE FAKE MONEY OF ITALY

|nF all the so called Great Powers"
~ Italy has the most unstable and most
unsatisfactory currency. Not alone is the
exchange subject to fuctuation (that is
true, in greater or less degree, of the cur
rency of every country, but there is a
great mass of counterfeit and worthless
money floating about the country for the
undoing of the unwary. In the first place,
the engraving on the paper money is of IN
ferior quality, and hence easy of imitation;
secondly, there are so many worthless or
doubtful coins in circulation that the temp
tation to add to their number is not easily
resisted.
Like some of our own paper money, the
Italian is allowed to remain in circulation
until disgracefully dirty and nearly obliter
ated, and therefore difficult of recognition as
counterfeit or genuine. To add to the con-
fusion, French silver is generally accepted,
while the coins of Switzerland, Belgium, and
Greece, although officially recognized, are,
as rule, refused in commerce. Numerous
papal and Rumanian coins are still IN clrcu-
lation; although valueless and accepted only
by unwary foreigners, whom the Italians re-
gard as fair prey.
In addition, none of the large number of
one-lira pieces coined before 1868 can be
passed, although intrinsically of equal value
with those OF later date, since the PERIOD
arbitrarily fixed for their redemption has
passed and the government refuses to ac-
cept them further. Under this caption fall
all coins bearing the head of Victor En-
manuel and the word "eletto' Collected y
on the face.
The Italians possess mania for mutilat-
ing and perforating the five and ten-centes-
imo copper coins; but, owing to their small
denomination. this usually acts as no bar to
their acceptance.
"Oh, it's half good!" is often heard from
some philosophical storekeeper, as he tosses
a doubtful coin into the till. Indeed, the
traveller is constantly reminded of Korea,
the classical country of counterfeits, with
its complicated scale of descending money
values, which are good, half good, bad, and
Evening star., 1913-04-06

counterfeits that are good only after dark.
But let the foreign visitor who has served
as clearing house for worthless money be-
ware of entertaining the fallacy that the
rule is capable of inverse application. Like
the legendary memory of elephants is that
of the Italian cabby or retail merchant, lead
ing him to pursue through storm and dark
ness the man or woman who has passed a
worthless coin into his keeping. On one oc
casion | was tracked even to the dinner
table of friends and forced to redeem a
doubtful ten-centesi1no piece 1.-TWO cents)
which l had inadvertently offered as a tip.
Instead of seeking to strengthen the basis
of the countrys paper and silver money, the
government adopted the very mea sure cal
culated still further to debase the currency
in the public mind. According to the ruling
of the postoffice authorities, all money
orders must be purchased with gold, silver
and paper being refused. Owing, however,
to the premium at which gold is held by the
banks, this results in considerable loss to
those sending money in this manner, and
often also to great inconvenience after bank
ing hours.
To accentuate the inconsistency of the
country's refusal officially to recognize its
own currency, it need only be mentioned
that the amount of Italian gold in existence
is negligible quantity, and that the ruling
results in forcing those patronizing the post
Office to purchase French gold.
Justly angered by this inconsistency, on
one occasion l relieved my feelings in the
presence of the official who had refused the
offer Of Italian paper money by sarcastic
reference to the nonexistence of native gold
coinage. The resultant indignant search
through his money drawer failed to reveal a
single Italian gold piece, although it resulted
nearly in an attack of apoplexy brought on
by patriotic wrath.
The application of my little article is this:
Are not these conditions in the home land
responsible for the frequency with which
Italians of low class in America are caught

dull, mysterious pounding on the wall hard

aperture stood my amazing neighbor, as
