The values assigned to the several coins by the Cur- rency Act are not arbitrary, but are proportioned, (except in the case of British silver) to the quantity of pure gold or silver in each. The £ currency was and is equal to 4 dollars of account] and a note tor 100 dollars, either in Upper or Lower Canada, is now, as it has always been, payable by X25 cy. , in any coins equivalent by law to that sum. By the Currency Act the Provmcial dollar of account is made equal in value to that of the United States; and the Eagle L, IS now, as REMARKS ON CURRENCY. 67 coined after 1834 and before 1841 , and passing there for $10, is therefore made to pass for £2 10s. cy. — and the Par is £1 cy.=:$4 of cwcount of the United States, the value of any sum being always that of the least valuable coins by which it can be le^lly paid. The weight of pure ^old in an Eagle and m a Sove- reign are such, thai if the former be worth £2 10s. the latter will be worth £1 4s. 4d. cy.. which is the value the act assigns to it and to the £ sterling, and agrees with the value ($4 86|) assigned to it by law in the United States. — The Far of cy. and sterling is therefore XI stg. = £l 4s. 4d. cy., or XlOO sterling= X121 13s. 4d., (or X121§) currency. But 10 silver dollars of proper weight and fineness are worth more than an Eagle or $10 of account, — so that the silver dollar is really worth nearly 5s. Id. cy.,for which sum it is directed to pass. In the same manner the values of certain other foreign coins are ascertained and assigned. But as subsequent coins of the same nations might vary in weight or fineness, such coins are not to be a legal tender unless under a proclama- tion after assay. British silver forms the exception to the rule above stated ; it is only worth, as silver, 10-11 of the nominal value for which it passes on the faith of the British Government. This nominal value is maintained by the Currency Act; and such coins, while lawfully current in Great Britain, pass for sums proportionate to their nominal value there, at the rate of XI 4s. 4d. cy. for XI stg. ; but for the reasons above stated, it is provided that they shall not be a legal tender for more than £2 10s. currency in any one payment. The coins current by the Act are : — British gold coins at the rate of XI 4s. 4d. cy. to XI sterling. American Eagles, coined before 1st July, 1834, at X2 13s. 4d. cy. — Do. coined between 1st July, 1834, and 1st January, 1841, at X2 10s. — and at the same rate for Half Epgles, &:c. The above are a legal tender by tale if within 2 grains of full weight, deducting one half-penny cur- rency for each half of a grain wanting. i^'^ |H I'l I 'iliMi III im i - 1 '( li|-i. 68 REMARKS ON CURRENCy.
