And one of the most

There are a few precau-

overlook the fact that foot

You may have to let go Of

Elizabeth'S reforms ex-
tended into the monetary
field. Her predecessors had
debased the coinage to the
point where there was almost
no silver content. Within two
years she had restored the
quality of the coinage and
issued enough to meet the
needs Of the people. During
her reign milled coinage was
introduced. Because of her
long reign tremendous guam
