to the Government, arid ’discehtlmio riiaidng;
the new coin. Its value was really one dollar!
and.a quarter, hut, once known to. bO’with
drawn, a fancy prico Was asked and received
for it. Wo recollect having paid (lvo times'
ita nominal vairio for this Victoria crown, soon
aftcritwas issued, and saw twice that amount
offered In 1851. Wri bcliove that Josepn
Mickles',Esq., of this city, has a lino speci
men in his valuable and curious collection of
American and foreign coins and medals.
, Tbs copper- coinage of England, is in a very
wretched condition, unequal in value nnd im
perfect in execution; The greater portion of
it is very old. More than one-fifth'of it dates
between. i 797 .arid. 1805. Tho .penny (two
cents) of 1707 weighs exactly an ouneb; hav
ing been,coined at tiro rate of sixteen'to the
pound.. The penny- of Victohia is much
lighterj twenty-Blx making a pound weight of
copper. ..Since 1852, only, fifteen per cont. of
copper money, has been coined.
Tho total'a&ount of copper money in circu
lation in the United Kingdom is in
curreilt value, This ’Cbrisißts bf, 3,600 tons
of copper. ‘ Taking, tills copper at £lO7 10s.
per ten, tho actual .value is only $1,896,000.
Therefore, of tho copper coin of-England, tho
iptrinsio value is less than one-half the ribmi-;
rial or apparent value) The penny of 1797 is
ririrth nearly half as much again as the’eoppeif
penny of 1852. . ’
The coppor-coinago iu circulation in Lon
don is much more worn rind battered titan that
ii country circulation.. In, Binning-'
.ham, and othor. large towns, tho ,copper trio
!liby has been reduced, to one-tbird ‘of its no
iminal value. Much of it is counterfeit, and
there it.mo,.small infusion op foreign,money.;
One-tbird of the whole copper money circula
‘tedin England J is cpuntcrfeUfforeign, or bat
jtired. and worn.. , Moreover,' crippor money is;
mrideniably heavy—tho coin ,is not agreeable
ito handle, and it communicates an unpleasant
staclC It retiinds orio of the qid copper coTa
jago of Franco, antong whiclt were to be found
pieces of money ,two centuries old, with , the
legends abd- ofligies worn off, and rudo at
tempts'at coinage, out of bell-metal, during
the first Revolution,, .g
Within the iasfuibw yea'fs, thanks to the aC :
ftivlty ot that . who takes
carC‘'of 'twftU'as ’troll* as'largo- matters iti’his
realms tht> copper' coinage has beeii called in,
and’ bronze metal: substituted/ the .size and
weight of the coin being diminished one half.
The size is , convenient, the bronze Whey
agreeable to handle, and tho appearance ia very
, ,jln c addition, the change had not,only
paid ibr Hie converting the bofn, but, iVom the
rfedbctlon of weight, had realized to the French
'Treasury ‘a proflt 6f $2,50Q,000. In England,
Hvherp .tljtc copper, coinage was considerably
loss than what it had been in Franco, thcTO
iwould bo a small amount to he called in, and,
of course, a'smaller sum to be realized as
profit. * •
The bronze money now , current in Franco
is harder, more, 'convenient, more agrecablo
than the old coppermoney. The improvement 1
of tt>e copper coinage, in France,, caused an
increased demand of 50 per cent, for the new
coins. Of course, the more made, the more
profit gained.* “ ' \ '
! The new mqiat will contain ninety-five parts
of copper, four parts- of tin,-and -ono part of
zinc. This' ; ftlloy‘ makes ii' hard metal. Tim
new coin will bo -fighter and thinner than the
copper fcoln. Its Intrinsic value wifi be about
half that, of thojprcßont coin. Twenty-six of
the old copper pennies, or sixteen of those
;0f,1797/yrill lrtakq forty-five of the now bronzo
pennies. If tho.wholo of the 8,600 tone of
' copper money now circulating in England wore
called in and recoined, tho Government would
