BY JAMES ATKINS. LONDON : BERNARD QUARITCH, 16 PICCADILLY. 1889. LONDON: G. NORMAN AND SON, PRINTERS, HART STREET, COVENT nARDEV, cj 25bO A t 'lO c PREFACE. -$-H. The great and ever-increasing- interest wliicli is mauifusted in all that appertains to the Colonies and Dependencies of the British Empire, is a quite sufficient justification for the production, at this time, of a work devoted to a consideration of the Coins and Tokens which have, from time to time, been struck for, or been current in, these places. In addition to this, all who at any time may have acquired any such coins (and most persons who are collectors must have done so), as well as systematic seekers after them, have felt the want of some work of reference, to which to turn for guidance and direction. Yet, notwithstanding the importance of the subject, to the best of ray belief no attempt has, up to the present, been made to give as a whole, anything approaching a complete or comprehensive list of our Colonial Coins and Tokens. And so it has come to pass ; whilst every other branch of Numismatic lore has been written upon, over and over again, this large and important section of the coins of our own Empire has been almost entirely neglected. It is true that piecemeal attempts have been made to remedy this state of things. The Rev. H. Christmas, in articles contributed to the Numismatic Chronicle, has dealt with the copper coins of several of our Colonies and Dependencies. Boyne also, in his " Silver Tokens," notices a number of the silver pieces of this series ; Clay's pamphlet (now so difficult to obtain), gives a considerable amount of information concerning the early American and Manx Coins, and several other contributors to the Numis- matic press have touched on some portion of the ground IV PREFACE. which 1 am now endeavouring to cover entirely. Nor must I omit to mention Mr. C. Staiusfield^ whose book on the *' Australian Tokens " is so thorough and painstaking that I have no corrections to make in it, but only to supply notices of some ten or twelve pieces, unknown to the author at the time. American writers have contributed several works upon the coinage of their own country; amongst others it will not be invidious to mention Dr. Crosby's " Early American Coins/^ and Sandham's "Coins and Tokens of the Dominion of Canada." Then again we have in German the excellent catalogues of Neumann and Weyl, the former relating to copper coins only ; in addition to which, the cost of these works, and the fact of their being in a foreign tongue, prevent them being readily accessible to most collectors. Having personally experienced the inconvenience of being compelled to consult so many dijBFerent works, whilst endeavouring to make a collection of Colonial Coins, I determined, so far as I might be able, to remedy this deficiency by gathering into one volume the information scattered in so many forms and directions, supplementing with such additional knowledge as I have acquired during a collecting experience of thirty years. In preparing this list I would seek altogether to disarm criticism by disclaiming at once any pretension to finality or completeness. The vastness of the subject, embracing as it does the British possessions scattered over the habit- able world, together with the fact that no previous effort has ever been made in this direction, are quite sufficient grounds, if any such were requisite, for offering no apology for any incompleteness in this the first attempt to produce an entire view of the Coins and Tokens of our Colonial Empire. Whatever the sins of omission or commission may be, of the latter I trust there will be but few, as I have carefully abstained, with rare exceptions, from describing any coins but those I have myself seen. PREFACE. Should, however, any such errors be discovered, I should be most obliged for such corrections or additions as might make a future edition (should one ever be called for) more perfect than the first. Neither do I make any claim to literary style in the following pages, as this would be quite out of place in a work professing simply to give a plain, and, so far as may be, a reliable list of these pieces. The making of this book has been a labour of love to me for several years past, and until recently no thought of its ever being published had occurred to me ; but encouraged by the advice and assistance of many friends, I have at last brought it out. I do so in the hope that there may be some brother collectors to whom it will prove of assistance, and who may be spared by my research some of the difficulties and labours which I experienced during my early years as a collector. Amongst so many who have kindly rendered me aid in this endeavour, it would perhaps be invidious to mention any in particular, but I cannot refrain from returning my thanks to J. B. Caldecott, Esq., for many valuable suggestions, especially in the East India section; to W. Carew Hazlitt, Esq., and R. A. Hoblyn, Esq. ; to H. Montagu, Esq., for ready access to his unrivalled collection of proofs and patterns; and to J. G. Murdoch, Esq. I have also to thank Messrs. Lincoln & Son, Messrs. Spink & Sons, and Mr. F. E. Whelan, of London, and Messrs. R. Heaton & Sons, of The Mint, Birmingham, for the invariable kindness shown in giving me' any information in their power; and last, but not least, to the authorities at the British Museum and the Royal Mint, for much assistance during the course of my researches in the National Collec- tions at those places. In conclusion, I have only to add that a short historical notice is prefaced to each section ; that each division of the globe — Europe, Asia, Africa, America, and Australasia — is VI PREFACE. treated separately ; and that an effort has been made, as far as possible, to. arrange the colonies and dependencies of each division, and also the coins and tokens issued by them, in chronological as well as in geographical order. It may not be altogether out of place here also to state that to the European section I have added, what I believe to be the only attempt in this country to give, a complete account of the coins struck during the reign of the four Georges and William IV. for their German possessions, and which, although they cannot be strictly classed as Colonial Coins, have yet too intimate a relationship to them to be left out of a work of this kind. JAMES ATKINS. Beomley, Kent, October, 1888. NOTE. The only abbreviations used in tliis work are— O : for obverse, and It : for reverse. In many cases the distinctive application of obverse, or reverse, are purely arbitrary, and simply intended to distiuguisli one side from the other. In the illustrations the obverse of the coin is usually found to the left, with the reverse to the right ; but I am sorry to say that the artist in drawing some of the illustrations was pleased to take a difierent view of the subject to myself, and so it has come to pass in a i'eyr instances that the O : and S : of the description does not agree with those of the illustration. This was not discovered until it was too late to correct it. I may also add that the illustrations will be found to immediately follow the description of the coin to which they refer.

These islands were captured by Rollo, and thus became an appanage of the Ducliy of Normandy, and afterwards united to the Crown of England by his descendant William the Conqueror. The inhabitants preferred to remain sub- jects of John at the period of the invasion of Normandy by Philip Augustus, and, while retaining the laws, customs, and (until lately) the language of their continental ancestors, have always remained firm in their allegiance to England. The only coins struck for these islands have been copper and bronze, which will first be described, and afterwards the tokens, both silver and copper. 1. 0: B: 2. 3. 0: R 4. GUERNSEY. Goiter Coins.

The Isle of Man was owned by the Earls of Derby from the year 1406 to 1735, who exercised all the rights of a sovereign even to the coining of money. The first issue of copper coins took place in 1709, and consisted of pennies and halfpennies. These coins are cast. There had been an issue of private tokens prior to this in 1668. In 1735 the island fell by inheritance to the Duke of Atholl who also exercised sovereign rights, and who in 1 758 issued pennies and halfpennies. His rights were in 1 765 purchased by the English Parliament for the sum of £70,000, and a further sum of £132,944 was given in January, 1829, for the purchase of his remaining interest in the revenues of the island. Copper pennies and halfpennies were issued in 1786, 1798 and 1813, and again, with the addition of farthings, in 1839. There are no silver coins, and in 1840 the separate issue for the island was stopped; since that time they have the ordinary coins such as are current in other parts of the kingdom. In addition to the seventeenth century token already mentioned, a considerable number of tokens, both silver and copper, were issued early in this present century. Coins op the Isle op Man.

This was due to the fact that the specimen described by him, had the date so low down, that the bottom part of the figure 2 cannot be seen.

Again in 1779 it was besieged by an immense force of French and Spaniards combined, and kept in a state of siege for upwards of three years, but the English garrison, under General Eliott, were successful in withstanding all their efforts, and the blockade ceased on February 5th, 1783.

There are Spanish Dollars with their various divisions found, which are countermarked on both sides with the floriated capitals <^3S in a circular indent. These are mentioned by Boyne in his work on Silver Tokens, and supposed by him to have been so marked for use in some of the Colonies. I have been informed, on pretty good authority, that they were used early in the present century for the payment of the troops at Gibraltar. I have, there- fore, taken this opportunity of mentioning them, although I do not positively assign them to this purpose. See also a note to a somewhat similar piece assigned to the West Indies. MALTA, The ancient Melita, was given to the Knights Hospitallers in 1530, and taken from them by the French in 1798. It surrendered to the British in 1800, and was confirmed in their possession by the treaty of Paris in 1814. Hading, in his ''Annals of the Coinage," says that the third of a farthing was ordered to be struck for this island on February 2Gth, 1827, and again on March 10th, 1835. It has also been struck in both copper and bronze during the reign of Victoria. Copper. 1. 0: Laureated bust to left. GEORGIUS IV DEI GRATIA. 1827.

According to Ruding, a penny, halfpenny, and farthing were ordered to be struck for these islands on February 11th, 1819. And on August 23rd, 1834, a silver piece of 30 oboli, as well as a copper obolas, was ordered ; the latter being of the weigJit of 240 to the pound.

The electorate and kingdom of Hanover, together witli the dukedoms of Brunswick and Luneberg, became a portion of the British empire by the accession of George Lewis, Elector, in 1714, to the throne of England. From this time, therefore, to the death of William IV. in 1837, the coins of these States come within the scope of this work. The majority of these coins were struck at the mints at Clausthall or Zcllerfeld, the Hanover mint only commencing its operations in 1814. The coins of the Clausthall mint usually bear the bust or arms of the sovereign on obverse, and the running horse on reverse, but when the metal of which the coins were made was brought from the mines at Andreasberg, then the reverse bears St. Andrew with his cross. The Zellcrfeld coins usually bear a wild man holding a fir-tree, the symbol of Brunswick Luneberg. The wild man holds the tree in his right hand. (The coins of Brunswick Wolfenbuttel bear the same wild man holding the tree in his left hand.) The tree usually has branches on one side only, but the mint at Zellerfeld being closed in 1780, and its business transferred to Clausthal from that time to the opening of the Hanover mint in 1814, the fir-tree has branches on both sides. On the smaller silver and many of the copper coins, the royal cypher appears on obverse, and the value on reverse. On most of the coins the initials of the mint master appear ; it will be as well, therefore, to give a list of their names during the English connection. On some of the coins the initial C. only appears ; this denotes commission, and only occurs in those years in which there was a vacancy 24 ANGLO-HANOVEEIAN. ill the oflfice of mint master. The initial A. also occurs, and denotes administrator. Clausthal Mint. HEINRICH CHRISTIAN BONHOEST, 1702-1725. CHRISTIAN PHILIP SPANGANBERG, 1725-1751. JOHAN WILHELM SCHLEMN, 1753-1788.

For the more convenient identification of the coins which follow, a table giving the shape of the various coats of arms, and shields, in outline, is here placed. For easy reference the arms, and shields, are numbered separately, and will be referred to in the description of the coins, by the numbers which are placed under them. There are minor variations in the shape of shields, which are impossible to specify, but these given will be found to embrace all the most striking diiferences. 25 ^ESt^i^»'ie *f'*^K^'*0 0*^'i.9.i *^2 roU4.Tar U^eom £ .^ 26 ANGLO-IIANOVERIAN. ^^ 3 4* Gold Coins.

The ancient Frisia, formerly governed by its own Counts. On the death of Prince Charles Edward in 1744, it became subject to the King of Prussia. It was annexed to Holland in 1806, and to the French Empire in 1810.. In 1815 it was annexed to Hanover, and so its coins for a short time come within the scope of this work.

The Duchy of Bruuswick was in 1409 divided into two branches ; that of Brunswick-Luneburg (from which came George I. of England) and Brunswick- Wolfenbuttel. 'I'his latter had for its Duke William Frederick, who, com- manding the avant-garde at Waterloo under Wellington, was there killed on June IGth, 1815, and who was succeeded by his eldest son, Charles Frederick William. He, being a minor, was placed under the guardianship of George, as Prince Regent, and also as George 1\'. until 1823, when the young Duke assumed the government. Under these circumstances it has been thought advisable to include the coins of this State between 1815 and 1823. Although they can scarcely be classed as belonging to the series of English dependencies, still, being found with the name and title of the sovereign upon them they might otherwise somewhat puzzle the inexperienced collector.

COINS AND TOKENS OF THE BRITISH POSSESSIONS IN ASIA, INCLUDING Bombay, Bengal, Madeas, The Indian Empire, Ceylon, SUMATEA, Malacca, Penang, Straits Settlements, Java, Hong Kong. Labuan, Borneo, Sarawak, AND Mauritius. 9 INDIA. The first commercial intercourse of the Englisli with India was a private adventure of three ships, which were fitted out in 1591. The information brought home gave rise to another voyage, and ultimately to the establishment of a company, whose first charter was granted by Queen Elizabeth in IGOO. Other companies were chartered in 1698 and in 1702, until in 1708 the New East India Company was established. This continued to increase in power and size till 1858, when the Government of India was transferred to the Crown, under a Council of State, when the Company^s political power ceased, and the Queen was proclaimed on November 1st, 1858, as Queen of Great Britain and the Colonies. This title was altered in 1877 to Empress of India. Of the coins of the native princes of India it is not in our province to speak, although they are intimately connected with those of the company. In fact, in some instances such as the " Sural " rupee for Bombay, the " Sicca " (current) for Bengal, and the "A^'cot" for Madras, the coins of the latter were exact copies of the former. It will be necessary to mention, however, for the better understanding of what has to follow, that there were until a very recent period (even if not at present) two distinct monetary systems prevailing in India, the Hindu and the Mussulman, and although the former has become extinct throughout the greater part of Hindustan, by the pre- dominance of the Mussulman power, it is still found in the coins in use in several petty states of Southern India. The unit of the Hindu system is of gold, and is called " Hwi " or " Hoon/' which word in the old Carnatic tongue signifies gold. The name of this coin amongst INDIA. lol Europeans is " Pagoda" a Portuguese appellation derived from a pyramidical temple, which forms the device on one side of it. The Hindu name for it is " Varaha" The Hun or Pagoda was subdivided into Fanams, or, more properly, Panam ^ •TT Faluce or Falous, and Cash or Kas ^'^ thus — 20 Cash = 1 Faluce. ^ ' 80 Cash = 4 Faluce = 1 Fanam 3360 Cash = 168 Faluce = 42 Fanams = 1 Pagoda. The unit of the Mussulman system is the silver Rupee^ there being nominally 16 Rupees to the gold Mohur; but as the weight and quality of the latter varied from time to time, we find practically that from 14 to 16 Rupees was the value of a Mohur. The Rupee is subdivided into Annas (which is a money of account only) and Pysas, or Pice, and Pie, thus — 3 Pie = 1 Pysa (or Quarter Anna) 12 Pie = 4 Pysa = 1 Anna 192 Pie ^64 Pysa = 16 Annas ^= 1 Rupee The coins of the Hindu system — viz. Pagodas and Fanams — seem to have been confined to the Madras presi- dency, whilst on the other hand the coins of Bombay and Bengal were Rupees, Annas, and Pice. The earliest coins for the East Indies were either struck at our own mint by our monarchs, or coined by their authority. Of the former kind were the " Portcullis " pieces of Elizabeth struck in 1600-1. During the reign of Charles II. the company began by authority from the Crown to strike coins for their factory at Bombay, all of which bore either the name, or some reference to, the sovereign. The first money coined in the East Indies was at Bombay in the year 1671, when the Com't of Directors gave instruc- tions to their servants to establish a mint, and a few years later this measure was sanctioned by the Crown. A clause in the chai'ter granted 26 Charles II., dated October 5th, 1677, empowered the company " to stamp money at Bombay, which money should be current wherever the company's 9 * 132 INDIA. privilege of trading in tlie East extended, to be called Eupees, Pice, and Badgrooks, to bear any seal or impression as the company shall think proper, so that such money shall not be called, or bear any impression of, any money such as was usually current in the Realm of England/^ The first record of a regular mint at Bombay is about the year 1738, and the coins struck then were of like character to those of the native Surat mint; but about 1790 machinery like that in use at the royal mint in London was introduced, and the Rupees thenceforward were carefully stamped, and bore the entire legend. Other improvements were made in 1800, in 1823, and again in 1832. The copper coins for Bombay were from an early period fabricated in England, many being struck at the Soho works by Messrs. Boulton and Watt. Since the construc- tion of the new mint at Bombay in the year 1832 they have been struck there, bearing the company's arms on one side, and a pair of scales with the word Adel Jjec. 27.

The only gold coins are the old and new standard 19th sun or " Sicca " Mohurs or " gold Rupees " as they are sometimes called, they are similar to the silver Rupees, and most probably from the same dies. The old standard have oblique milled edges, and weigh 190 grs. The new standard have an upright milled edge, and weigh 204 grs., but being of a lower degree of fineness, are worth no more than the old ; that is 16 sicca Rupees. Of the silver Rupees there are many varieties. The earliest are very rude coins struck in the Dacca, Moorshedabad, and Patna mints, they show a part only of the legend and are diflScult to distinguish with precision from the native issues, these were struck from 1757 to 1773. An improvement was effected in the latter year, and one date only appears on all struck afterwards — viz. the 19th sun ; these are called " Sicca," that is " current " Rupees, as they were declared to be the only ones to be allowed to pass. In 1 792 improvements were introduced in the mint at Calcutta, and the legend is now, for the first time, found entire, and an oblique milling is introduced; this in 1818 gave way to the straight milling which was in use until 1832, from which time to 1835 the edges are plain. Coins for the western provinces were struck at the mint of Furruckabad from 1803 to 1819 with oblique milled edge, from 1819 to 1832 with a straight milling, and from the latter year to 1835 the edge is plain. The Furruckabad coins, however, were struck fi'om 1825 to 1835 at Benares and Sagur, and not at the former mint which was abolished in 1825. J 50 INDIA. The coins struck at Sagur prior to 1825 have the name of the place on them in small Roman capitals. The Benares coins from 1013 to 1819 have an oblique milled edge, those from 1795 to 1812 have the same rude character as the other early issues. From 1819 Furruckabad coins were struck at the Benares mint until 1830, in whicli year the mint was abolished. Gold Coins. Old standard Mohur.

Both the monetary systems of India appear to have been in use in this presidency at the same time, and we find Mohurs and Pagodas in gold, and Rupees, half and quarter Pagodas and Fanams in silver, being struck apparently at the same place and passing side by side. According to the catalogue of the Fonrobert collection, a quarter Eeal was sent out from England as early as the reign of James I. for this place ; and again in Charles II.'s time double and single Fanams were issued, although by some these pieces are assigned to Bombay, but this I think exceedingly improbable. The first Rupees were copies of the rude native work of the " Arcot " mint and were struck most probably from 1758 (which agrees with the Mahomedan date tivr (1172) upon the coins) to 1811, from which year, to 1818, double as well as single rupees were struck with an oblique milled edge which, after that year, was altered to an indented cord milling which continued until 1835, these all have, as a distinguishing mark, the ''Pudane" Lotus (or trefoil). During the years 1823-5 "Arcot" rupees with their halves and quarters were struck at the Calcutta mint for the Dacca and Cuttack districts, having an upright milled edo-e, and bearing a rose as mint-mark. Half and quarter pagodas together with pieces of five, two, and one fanams were coined from Spanish dollars in 1811. Gold Coins. S/ar Pagoda. 1.0: The god Swami.

These have the appearance of being of earlier work also. There is a Fanam Token classed by some with this series, but which was struck for Ceylon. About this same time (1811) a coinage of double and single Eupees with their divisions also took place, which continued until 1822, of the '^ Arcot" type with an oblique milled edge. There are many slight variations in the shape of the lotus flower mint-mark. MADRAS PRESIDENCY. 171 Double Supce. 51. Similar to No. 10, but bearing tbo date of the year r (2) on the reverse.

Sarawak in North Borneo was founded by Sir Jas. Brooke, who was appointed Eajah in 1841^ and through his instru- mentality the Island of Labuan or Sultana and the adjacent dependencies became incorporated with the British Empire, and were formally taken possession of in the presence of the Bornean chiefs, December 2nd, 1846. Previously to this, so long ago as 1804, the East Indian Company had struck small coins (Kapangs) for Labuan similar to those struck for Sumatra. A company trading to Borneo had a charter granted to them as the North Borneo Company, and cents and half cents were coined for them by Messrs. Heaton and Sons in 1882 and following years. y Sarawak.

There is no date to this coin, but being during the reign of James II. it must have been issued between 1685 and 1688. New York Token. The token next to be considered is one about which nothing can be said but what is founded entirely upon conjecture. By some it has been thought to be of Dutch origin, but there is little room for such an opinion, as the legend is English, such as it is. Again, it is very diflScult to assign a date to it, but it was most likely struck late in the 17th century, say between 1667, when New York was confirmed to England by the Peace of Breda, and 1710, after which date the name was rarely spelt with an B.

He brought with him a quantity of the pieces known as St. Patrick's halfpence, which, in consequence of the scarcity of small change there, were in the ensuing May made current in that State under certain conditions expressed in the act by which they were authorized. This act is found in the " Grants, Concessions and Original Constitutions of the Province of New Jersey," under date of May 8th, 1682. 62. 0: David playing the harp. FLORBAT J;t EEX. B : S.

There are several varieties of this piece, but as they belong rather to the Irish series than the Colonial it is not thought necessary to further describe them. Carolina and New England Halfpennies. We have next the two pieces with the above title which were issued in 1694, These appear to have been private speculations, and to have had no very extensive currency. They are both extremely rare and command high prices. They arc of English manufacture, and the obverse is not only similar to, but absolutely from, the same die as the " London " halfpenny ; but whereas the London halfpenny weighs from 210 to 240 grains, the heaviest of these do not exceed 160 grains. 17 * 260 EARLY AMERICAN.

Struck in brass or bronze, beautiful as works of art, and presenting a remarkably fine portrait of the king (George I.), and infinitely superior to any other coins in circulation as regards intrinsic value, they were yet exceedingly unpopular, and, practically speaking, were never in any quantity circulated in America. It is usual to deno- minate these as the penny, halfpenny, and farthing ; but they were, in fact, twopenny pieces, pennies, and halfpennies. Of this coinage there are several types, as follows ; — EAKLY AMERICAN. 261 Twopenny Pieces. 65. : Bust to riglit, GEOKGIVS . D : G : M : B : FR • ET . H : REX : E: II crowned .1717 over .

The autliorities appear to have taken no notice of his issues of coin, which seem to have continued for about three years — from 1737 to 1739 — specimens being extant bearing these dates, though I have not seen or heard of any dated 1738.

The Stamp Act was passed March 22nd, 1765, and repealed, principally by the agency of Mr. Pitt, March 18th, 1766. This coin, or rather medalet, was struck to commemorate this event by Mr. Smithers, of Phila- delphia, from the designs of Colonel Revere, of Boston. Although doubtless originally intended for this purpose only, it soon became, in consequence of the dearth of small change, converted into currency. 89. 0: B: EARLY AMERICAN. 265 Bust of Pitt to left.

There is much doubt whether the coin now to be described was ever really an authorized issue, for although bearing the bust, arms, and title of the king, there is no record concerning it, and most likely it was a private speculation. 90. : Bust to right, GEORGIUS . HI . REX. B: Shield of arms crowned, the crown divides date 17-73 VIRGINIA. 91. A variety has no dot after GEORGIUS, and there are several other minor difterences. A few specimens are struck on thicker and larger pieces of metal, and are sometimes called, without good reason, pennies. They are extremely rare. A silver proof exists dated 1774, and, on the authority of the Rev. H. Christmas, I believe, a bronze proof of the same date, but these too are exceedingly rai'e. This exhausts the list of the pre-revolutiouary coins and tokens of the American colonies, which, in 177G, declared themselves " free, sovereign, and independent," which inde- pendence was recognized by the mother-country in 1783. COINS AND TOKENS OF NEWFOUNDLAND. Newfoundland^ an island situate on the N.E. side of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, was discovered by Sebastian Cabot in 1497, who called it Prima Vista. It was formally taken possession of for the English by Sir Humphrey Gilbert in 1583, and the fisheries which were soon after commenced became of so much importance that in the year 1625 more than 150 ships were employed in them, from the Devonshire ports alone. The sovereignty of England was recognized in 1713, and in 1832 Newfoundland obtained the privilege of a colonial legislature, and at the present time it is the only North American colony which returns its indepen- dence, all the others being merged in the Dominion of Canada. Although politically and commercially of much less importance than the latter colony, from the numismatic point of view Newfoundland claims precedence, as being the only place to issue gold coins, which precedence it also deserves by the order of seniority.

Under this head we shall include all the coins and tokens struck in or for the British possessions in North America which have since been incorporated under this title. The principal part of the currency until quite recently consisted of tokens^ many of which were issued by banks or private individuals, while some were designed and executed in England, as a matter of speculation, and were sold in bulk to the merchants during the seasons of scarcity of change. Others again are the work of native artists, the number of the latter, however, being very small. There are but few silver coins to describe and no gold. The first of the Colonies to be mentioned under this heading being : — NOVA SCOTIA. Nova Scotia was discovered by Cabot in 1475, visited by Verrazzani and by him named Acadia in 1524; settled in 1622 by the Scotch, under William Alexander, in the reign of James I. of England, from whom it received the name of Nova Scotia. Since its first settlement it has more than once changed proprietors, and was not confirmed to England till the peace of Utrecht in 1713. There are no silver and but a very few bronze coins, but there are several copper tokens. 1.0: A ship in full sail, NOVA SCOTIA AND NEW BRUNSWICK SUCCESS.

The legend which extends round on the outside of the wreath is, NOVA SCOTIA ONE CENT. There is also a pattern cent and half cent, dated 1861, with the bust and letters of legend smaller than on those afterwards issued. NEW' BRUNSWICK New Beunswick was takeu from Nova Scotia and elevated to tlie dignity o£ a separate colony in the year 1785. It became incorporated in tlie Dominion of Canada by an act passed March 29tlij 1867. Its interest from a numismatic point of view is small, as there are but few silver and bronze coins, and the tokens are fewer still. Silver Coins.

PRINCE EDWARD'S ISLAND. This island was taken from the French by the British in the year 1757, and united with Cape Breton as a colony in 1763, but separated again in 17G8. In 1800 it received its present title from Prince Edward, Duke of Kent. Its inhabitants are almost exclusively engaged in agriculture, considerable attention, however, being given to the fisheries. Allusions to these two points are found on most of the few tokens belonging to this colony, which finally became a province of the Dominion of Canada in 1873. There are but few tokens, and but one coin, and tlicy are all halfpenny size, or cents. A steamship going to the left, HALFPENNY TOKEN. FISHERIES 1 AND | AGRICULTURE in three lines. A plough.

The Magdalen Islands are a small group near the centre of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and about equi-distant from Cape Breton and Prince Edward Island. They contain about 2000 inhabitants, who are chiefly supported by the pro- ductive cod, herring and seal fisheries of the neighbouring waters. There is but one token, and that bears direct reference to the prevalent industry. 1.0: A seal, within a circle, MAGDALEN ISLAND TOKEN cg^lSlScg^ R : A split codfish, also within a circle. SUCCESS TO THE FISHERY . ONE PENNY. BRITISH COLUMBIA. Until the year 1858 British Columbia formed a portion of the Hudson^s Bay Territory; but in that year large discoveries of gold were made which, attracting a vast immigration of gold-diggers, rendered it necessary for the British Government to take measures for the maintenance of order, and the country was erected into a colony. In 1866 Vancouver's Island was united to it, and in 1871 it became incorporated with the Dominion of Canada. There are no coins of this colony with the exception of the two following pieces, and they can scarcely be more than patterns, as I have only seen one of each, which is in the National Collection at the British Museum, having been presented by F. Seymour, Esq., Governor of British Columbia in 1864. 1. 0: A Crown. GOVERNMENT OF BRITISH COLUMBIA.

Canada was discovered by Jolm and Sebastian Cabot, on June 24th, 1497. In 1524 a French settlement was formed, and called New France, and in 1535 a Breton mariner named Jacques Cartier ascended the St. Lawrence as far as the present site of Montreal; and Quebec was founded about 1608. A raid upon these settlements was made by the English in 1629, but the French regained possession in 1632, which they held until 1759, when Canada was con- quered by the English, and their acquisition was confirmed to them by the Treaty of Paris in 1763. During this period coins of silver and copper were struck by the French king, Louis XIV., for his American dominions, but these pieces, interesting as they be to the Canadian collector, do not come within the scope of the present work. Since its incorporation with the other colonies of North America, in the year 1867, the whole have been termed "The Dominion of Canada,'^ and silver and bronze coins are now issued for the entire district. These, although later in chrono- logical order, will first be described, and afterwards, the somewhat numerous series of copper tokens, and at the end of these will be placed a number of pence and halfpence, all of which were most probably struck in England, and which would more correctly be described as Non-Local Tokens of the nineteenth century, and which are usually so described, but which are included here as they were used very freely as small change in Canada for many years, and are claimed by Canadian collectors as their own. 286 CANADA.

The : of this token, or advertising ticket, bears a close resemblance to the cent No. 60, and the issue of it was in consequence forbidden by the colonial authorities. MISCELLANEOUS AND DOUBTFUL. Under this head we shall include a few railway and toll checks and tickets, wkicli although scarcely coming under the head of coins or tokens, are yet usually sought after and prized by Canadian collectors, and also a number of what are probably English nineteenth century non-local tokens, for the same reason. These latter were doubtless, in the absence of small change, imported and used in con- siderable quantities in Canada, and therefore have acquired in some measure '^a local habitation,^' if not a name, as Canadian tokens. 178. 0: A steamboat.

This railway, when first opened, was largely used by the Indians and their squaws, together with the navvies working upon the line. The ordinary cardboard ticket not being sufficiently strong for this class of customers, this metal ticket was introduced and used instead. A hole in the centre of the ticket was used by the conductors to string them upon a piece of wire. Somewhat similar tickets were used upon some of our earliest English linos.

The West India Islands belonging to Great Britain, of wliich Jamaica is tlie largest and most important, have an area of nearly 14,000 square miles and a population of 1,250,000. In the early part of the present century slavery existed in all the islands. Fostered by highly protective duties, they reached a very flourishing condition, and large fortunes were made. This condition was completely artificial ; and when slavery was abolished, and the protective duties repealed, an entire collapse took place, and many hitherto wealthy persons were ruined. Up to that time these islands had been regarded as the choicest possessions of the British crown, and a grand outlet for commerce. Since then they have received less attention in every way than they deserve, but are now again resuming their proper position, and it may be hoped that they will once more become prosperous. With the exception of an attempt in 1822 by striking a quantity of the pieces of Half, Quarter, Eighth and Six- teenth of a Dollar, no provision for the currency of these islands has been made by the mother-country, although later, silver threepences, and threehalfpences, have been issued, and also a special issue of nickel coins for Jamaica. Considerable use has been made of the Spanish dollars, and a number of varieties of cut and countermarked coins will be found in this series. There are also a few tokens issued by private traders. The series, although small, contains pieces of great variety and interest, containing as it does some of the very earliest and rarest of our colonial coins, viz., those of the Somer Islands.

Apropos of this piece there is a striking instance of the ingenuity of man where the making of money is concerned. This was supposed to be a quarter of a dollar, and circulated for Is 3(7, but the makers of it got to be so clever as to make five quarters out of a dollar. Hence arose a great deal of suspicion and dislike of these pieces, the result being a great depreciation of their value. TRINIDAD. 57. 0: HALF ST AMPEE . REDEEMABLE AT H. E . RAPSEYS.

D'ADE & CO. TRINIDAD. Ruding says that by a proclamation of the Governor of Trinidad made June 19th, 1811, a piece of silver was ordered to be struck from the centre of each Spanish dollar, the dollar so cut to circulate at the rate or value of nine shillings (currency), and the piece so cut out to pass current for one shilling. Now the question arises, were these pieces triform or heart-shaped ? If so, that will satisfactorily account for Spanish money cut in this shape. Boyne, in his " Silver Tokens," mentions these, but although he thought they might be intended for colonial use, he knew nothing of them. Another unexplained curiosity is a Spanish dollar of Ferdinand VII., dated 1811, which is countermarked '6 ^ surmounted by a crown. This may have been intended for use in the West India Islands at this time as so many expedients were tried to procure currency, or it may possibly have been used for Gibraltar. See a note to a somewhat similar piece for that place. There is also a triangular portion of the Spanish dollar met with which is countermarked W . R . and halfpence with a similar countermark occur. These are usually assigned to the West Indies, and doubtless correctly so. They are as follows : — 59. Triangular portion of Spanish dollar counter- marked with W R surmounted with crown in sunk lines. 60. An Irish halfpenny of George II. counter- marked with W . R surmounted with a crown in raised lines upon an oblong indent with a serrated edge. In addition to the foregoing, there was ordered to be coined for the West India Islands on the 29th April, 1822, WKST INDIES. 321 pieces of half, quarter, eighth, and sixteenth of a dollar, similar to those struck for the Mauritius, and an attempt was made about the same time to establish an uniform coinage for the British colonies on the decimal system, and coins, 50 and 100 to the dollar, were struck but never circulated ; and again three-pemiy and three-half pennij pieces were ordered to be issued for the West Indies on September 12th, 1834, which pieces are continued to the present time.

In addition to the pierced and countermarked Spanish Dollars previously mentioned for the various Islands, the following are considered by some collectors as belonging to this series : — DOMINICA. 84. A Spanish Dollar, from which a circular piece with a crenated edge has been cut. 85. The circular portion cut from the foregoing, stamped with a §), radiated. There are fifteen crenations. These pieces have by some been hitherto assigned to Demerara, but upon insufficient data, the probability being that the pierced Dollar described at Nos. 1 and 2 of British Guiana {ichich see) was the one in use in that Colony, and thus rendering it exceedingly unlikely that another, and that so differently stamped, should be in use for the same place. GUADALOUPE. 86. A Spanish Dollar, from which a quadrangular piece with a crenated edge has been cut, countermarked G with a small crown over it, on both sides. 87. The piece cut out is stamped with a a radiated. There are twelve crenations. 88. A triangular portion of a Spanish Dollar (? quarter) with G stamped on the angle with a punch ; also countermarked a s in a square indent, and with a 2 in a circular indent. Cut portions of Dollars also 21 =»= 324 WEST INDIES. occur somewhat similar, countermarked witli a 3, a 4 and a 6, sometimes with a small crown above the figure, aud sometimes without. This island was colonized by the French, in whose possession it has mostly been, but was taken from them by the British in 1779, 1794, and 1810, and again in 1815. It has been supposed that the above pieces were made and used by the English during their time of holding the island in the two latter years. TOBAGO. 89. A Spanish Dollar with a hexagonal piece cut from the centre. 90. The piece cut from the foregoing is countermarked with a T The similarity of this countermark to that used for No. 51 of this series, gives some foundation for the opinion that these pieces were made for use in Tobago. TRINIDAD. I have already hazarded a suggestion that the heart- shaped pieces cut from Dollars, and their divisions, may possibly have been made for this island. In addition to these there is another cut Dollar, thought by some to be the one referred to by Ending. (/See note foUou'ing No. 58 of this series.) It is as follows : — 91. A Spanish Dollar, from which a circular piece, with fourteen crenations, has been cut. 92. The piece cut from this Dollar is countermarked with a ^radiated. CENTRAL AMERICA. BRITISH HONDURAS. British Honduras was taken possession of by English settlers from Jamaica soon after a treaty with Spain in 1G67. They were often disturbed by the Spaniards until 1783, since which time we have had comparatively peaceable possession. The only coin specially issued for Honduras is the following Cent : : Bust to left crowned VICTORIA QUEEN. B: 1 in a dotted circle. BRITISH HONDURAS above. ONE CENT 1885 below. & BRITISH GUIANA. (United Colony op Demerary and Essequibo.) This colony is a section of the northern coast of South America^ and includes the settlements of Demerara, Esse- quibo, and Berbice. It was taken from the Dutch in 1796, but restored to them at the Peace of Amiens, in March, 1802. It again surrendered to the British in September, 1803, and finally became an English colony in 1814. Rudiug, in his Annals, states that a Committee of Privy Council for Trade, for the colonies of Demerara and Esse- quibo, on May 12th, 1809, recommended a silver coinage of tokens to the amount of £10,000. The monetary system at this period was similar to the old Dutch currency : 16 duits or pfennigs = 1 stiver, which was equal to about two-thirds of an English penny. 23 stivers = 1 guilder; this being equal to Is l^d English. In 1839 the old monetary system was abolished, and dollars and cents introduced after the American model, the 3 guilder piece being made to pass for a dollar. No coins were issued after the change in the system, and English, Spanish, Mexican, South American and United States coins are all now legal tenders at authorized rates. The only issue of copper was in 1813, when pieces of stivers and half-stivers were struck. There is, however, a copper token for one stiver struck in 1838, which is gene- rally considered to have been made for this colony, although I have not been able to find out anything authentic to justify such an assumption. It has been placed here, as it seems as likely to belong to this series as any other. There is a cut Spanish dollar also, which was most likely in use BKITISa GUIANA. 327 during tlio English possession, and as this was the first in order of time, wo shall give it priority in description.

It is true that at Melbourne and Sydney there are mints employed, but as the only coins struck are the sovereign and half-sovereign for general circulation, which are similar to our own, with the exception of a minute initial letter as mint-mark, they can scarcely be styled Colonial coins. At the same time as they differ in this respect it was necessary to mention, although not to describe them. Gold coins were struck at the Sydney mint from 1855 to 1870 from dies sent out from the Eoyal Mint, London, which in 1867 were declared to be current coin of the realm. There are a very few gold tokens to describe, and also a , few in silver, the majority of the tokens consisting of copper pence and halfpence. In describing the latter they will be arranged alphabetically in their respective provinces, placing the provinces in their chronological order. Gold. 1. : A crown within an inner circle, 1852 under.

There was no issue of half-sovereigns in 1862, 1864, 1866, 1868 and 1870, but there are patterns (or proofs) of 1862 and 1866. From the year 1871 sovereigns and half-sovereigns were coined at the mints in Sydney and Melbourne and still continue. These are identical with those struck in England, with the exception that a minute s. for Sydney, and m. for Melbourne distinguishes them, and forms a kind of mint-mark. AUSTRALIA. 337 Silver. English silver coins have always been the authorized currency in the Australian colonies^ although from a dearth of supply other expedients have been resorted to, many of the traders of New South Wales having issued notes for sums of sixpence and upwards. In the year 1813 an endeavour was made to meet the great need of a silver currency by cutting the Spanish dollar to make two pieces, of five shillings and of fifteenpence respectively. These are as follows : — 33. : FIVE SHILLINGS and two sprigs of laurel, countermarked upon a Spanish dollar from which a circular portion has been cut in the centre. R : NEW SOUTH WALES 1813.

U . at the sides. SOUTH AUSTRALIA'S PRIDE. B : Two hands clasped, SAILORS & BROTHERS. Copper Tokens. These pieces, which constitute the majority of the Australasian currency, are for the most part very uninterest- ing, having little artistic merit, and, of course, no antiquity to recommend them. They usually have little but the name and address, or business advertisement, together with a Coat of Arms, or some emblem of the trade of their various issues. Some few, however, are very fine examples of die-sinking and stamping, and one or two of Sydney are quaint specimens of Colonial workmanship. As before stated, the arrange- ment will be in pi'ovinces, first the pence and then the halfpence of each province, arranging the towns alpha- betically, and placing the names of the issues in like order.

Kenyon, Esq., tlxick 8vo., 508 pp. and 55 plates containing figures of about 520 Coins, hy F. W. Fairholt and F. J. Lees, Boxlurghe, gilt top, £1. 16* 1887 " A third edition having been called for, the text has been carefully revised, and the coins found and published during the last ten years have been described in their in-oper places. Several additions have been made to the hsts of the mints before the Conquest, and some additions and alterations have been made throughout the work. But the most important alteration has been in the reign of Edward III, where it is sho^^•n that all of the coins hitherto attributed to him were struck subsequently to 1351, and that those struck before, during, and after the Treaty of Bretigny, may be distinguished by the titles inscribed on them ; in accord- ance with the arrangement adopted by the editor in his book on English Gold Coins. This will clear the way for a more satis- factory arrangement than has hitherto been possible of the coins which have been attributed to Edward I and II, but some of which must now be given to the first half of Edward Ill's reign ; but such a redistribution can only be made after careful examination of a very large number of these coins, and for such examination the editor has lately had neither time nor opportunity." — Preface to the Third Edition. The Companion to Hawkins' Silver Coins of England: KENYON'S HISTORY OF THE GOLD COINAGE OF ENGLAND, by R. Ll. KENYON, Editor of the third edition of Haichins' Silver Coins of England, 1 vol. demy 8vo., (uniform %oith the worh of HaivJcins), 24 plates, engraved hy F. J. Lees, Member of the Ntcmisinatic Society, Eoxburghe, gilt top, 245 1883 This work contains a complete account of the English current gold coins, from the earliest Saxon times to the present reign, with •200 illustrations, and includes a description of gold coins attributed to the tirst half of the seventh century. It is hoped that the light which an examination of the gold coins throws upon the proper appropriation of the silver, as for instance in the reigns of Henry V and VI and of Edward V, together with the information about the history of the coinage which this volume contains, may make it acceptable to collectors, even though then- cabinets may not contain a great number of gold coins.

It is hoped that it will not only find favour with the antiquary and the numismatist, but will also interest all who are curious in the early history of our island ; some of the principal events in which, during a long period of the Roman occupation, are recorded on the corns of the conquerors. * * BERNARD QUAEITCH is the Agent of the NUMISMATIC SOCIETY OF LONDON, and supplies recent and back numbers of tlieir CHKONICLE. ,^ A>^^ •.'^• ''' ■% ^1 6 •2 -n rr <: .v^ ^. ^Advaaii-^^^"^ >fc v^'^ .^ .V ^V\t■L'NIVERS•/A ^vbclOSANCElfj^ ^,>Nt-l '^i^iaDNv-sov^'^" "^AaaAiNo-i^v- ^0' = ( : > %. v' ^MIBRARY^^^ >- .-..^F iva-jo^" 4^-' r^ c r KwrcxT^ . ^ 5i\f ■ ■•: - v inr-Avr.Firr. .'^s . .v\T- t/' c '^ ^V^I' xi r^ 4 -5 '''♦'(ilOJIlVJJO^' .)fCALIfO% -r c -n\.
