further_a proposal_n for_o amend_v and_o settle_v the_o coin_n by_o a_o person_n of_o honour_n london_n print_v and_o sell_v by_o m._n whitlock_n near_o stationers-hall_n 1696._o further_a proposal_n etc._n etc._n there_o be_v but_o two_o way_n of_o redress_v the_o disorder_n of_o our_o coin_n the_o one_o by_o call_v in_o all_o the_o old_a that_o be_v clip_v and_o coin_v it_o new_a into_o milled_a money_n the_o other_o of_o give_v all_o the_o old_a money_n course_n for_o at_o least_o one_o year_n long_o but_o with_o denomination_n different_a from_o what_o they_o bear_v at_o present_a and_o more_o proportion_v to_o their_o weight_n or_o intrinsic_a value_n of_o these_o two_o that_o be_v to_o be_v choose_v which_o have_v the_o few_o inconvenience_n attend_v it_o for_o some_o nay_o many_o perhaps_o there_o will_v be_v in_o both_o in_o the_o first_o remedy_n the_o inconvenience_n be_v first_o the_o great_a dimunition_n of_o the_o current_a species_n of_o money_n in_o the_o kingdom_n compute_v to_o amount_v to_o at_o least_o two_o million_o by_o which_o there_o will_v come_v to_o be_v in_o proportion_n so_o many_o few_o piece_n of_o crown_n half_a crown_n shilling_n and_o six_o pence_n than_o be_v before_o in_o common_a use_n to_o the_o great_a prejudice_n of_o common_a market_n as_o well_o as_o other_o great_a payment_n public_a or_o private_a second_o if_o all_o clip_v money_n be_v call_v in_o and_o new_o coin_v and_o by_o the_o ancient_a standard_n as_o to_o weight_n and_o denomination_n our_o money_n will_v still_o be_v carry_v abroad_o rather_o than_o our_o commodity_n while_o trader_n can_v get_v more_o by_o export_v one_o than_o the_o other_o for_o though_o the_o plenty_n or_o scarcity_n of_o money_n in_o a_o country_n depend_v upon_o the_o proportion_n or_o balance_n betwixt_o exportation_n and_o importation_n yet_o the_o better_a our_o money_n be_v the_o more_o in_o specie_fw-la will_v be_v export_v and_o the_o worse_a it_o be_v the_o more_o will_v be_v export_v in_o commodity_n which_o have_v evident_o occasion_v the_o quick_a vent_n and_o thereby_o dearness_n of_o all_o commodity_n for_o these_o year_n past_a since_o our_o money_n have_v be_v so_o general_o clip_v the_o three_o inconvenience_n will_v be_v from_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o time_n to_o he_o take_v up_o in_o call_v in_o all_o the_o bad_a money_n and_o coin_v good_a which_o will_v occasion_v great_a disorder_n in_o all_o market_n and_o payment_n till_o both_o be_v finish_v and_o for_o this_o i_o see_v no_o remedy_n four_o though_o the_o loss_n of_o what_o be_v pay_v into_o the_o king_n exchequer_n be_v bear_v by_o the_o public_a yet_o that_o will_v not_o indemnify_v man_n in_o private_a payment_n so_o as_o many_o will_v still_o lose_v by_o this_o remedy_n in_o their_o particular_a stock_n as_o well_o as_o the_o nation_n in_o their_o general_n stock_n and_o no_o one_o particular_a will_v make_v any_o gain_n on_o the_o other_o side_n and_o upon_o the_o second_o expedient_a suppose_v that_o every_o crown_n or_o half_a crown_n mill_v or_o not_o clip_v shall_v be_v raise_v in_o denomination_n and_o current_n payment_n the_o one_o to_o six_o the_o other_o to_o three_o shilling_n every_o such_o shilling_n to_o fifteen_o penny_n and_o six_o penny_n to_o seven_o penny_n half_a penny_n every_o half_a crown_n clip_v but_o not_o within_o the_o ring_n remain_v at_o its_o common_a value_n and_o so_o likewise_o shilling_n and_o six-pence_n but_o every_o half_a crown_n clip_v within_o the_o ring_n be_v cry_v down_o to_o twenty_o penny_n every_o shilling_n so_o clipe_v to_o eight_o penny_n and_o every_o such_o sixpence_n to_o a_o groat_n or_o four_o penny_n in_o the_o first_o place_n all_o the_o old_a broad_a and_o mill_v money_n which_o now_o lie_v hoard_v up_o in_o banker_n and_o rich_a private_a hand_n will_v immediate_o come_v out_o into_o common_a use_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o gain_n will_v be_v make_v upon_o the_o increase_n of_o its_o value_n or_o at_o least_o current_a use_n and_o denomination_n so_o that_o as_o a_o great_a many_o will_v be_v loser_n by_o cry_v down_o the_o current_a price_n of_o the_o clip_v money_n so_o a_o great_a many_o will_v be_v gainer_n by_o cry_v up_o the_o good_a and_o those_o that_o lose_v will_v lose_v but_o little_a because_o every_o body_n have_v pay_v off_o for_o some_o time_n all_o clip_v money_n as_o fast_o as_o it_o come_v in_o second_o by_o this_o the_o general_n stock_n of_o money_n current_n will_v perhaps_o not_o at_o all_o be_v lessen_v in_o the_o denomination_n consider_v how_o much_o of_o the_o old_a or_o weighty_a money_n may_v be_v presume_v to_o be_v hoard_v up_o and_o more_o money_n will_v fall_v into_o commerce_n than_o do_v at_o present_a because_o that_o it_o will_v come_v into_o common_a payment_n which_o be_v now_o keep_v close_o and_o by_o the_o vast_a number_n of_o guinea_n which_z have_v appear_v of_o king_n charles_n and_o king_n james_n coin_n it_o may_v be_v guest_n how_o much_o of_o old_a or_o mill_v money_n will_v soon_o appear_v if_o the_o price_n be_v raise_v three_o by_o cry_v up_o our_o good_a money_n trader_n will_v be_v tempt_v to_o export_v less_o abroad_o and_o turn_v as_o much_o as_o they_o can_v to_o export_v our_o commodity_n which_o will_v make_v trade_n quick_a and_o encourage_v both_o common_a labour_n and_o manufacture_n among_o we_o and_o our_o money_n so_o coin_v and_o guinea_n fix_a to_o go_v at_o six_o and_o twenty_o shilling_n will_v bring_v our_o coin_n in_o the_o intrinsic_a and_o the_o denomination_n to_o that_o of_o our_o neighbour_n as_o can_v well_o be_v contrive_v without_o which_o the_o temptation_n will_v still_o be_v great_a to_o carry_v our_o money_n abroad_o four_o all_o the_o denomination_n will_v run_v easy_o into_o common_a account_n and_o reckon_n and_o the_o several_a species_n of_o our_o money_n will_v be_v augment_v by_o so_o many_o groat_n eight_o pence_n twenty_o pence_n whereas_o there_o seem_v to_o be_v now_o too_o few_o leave_v for_o common_a use_n since_o no_o more_o nine-pence_n groat_n four-pence-half-pennys_a be_v in_o

in_o any_o common_a payment_n either_o public_a or_o private_a but_o every_o man_n content_a for_o once_o only_o to_o fit_v down_o with_o the_o loss_n of_o the_o clip_v money_n he_o shall_v have_v

their_o milled_a or_o old_a unclipped_a money_n now_o for_o the_o inconvenience_n to_o be_v find_v in_o this_o i_o see_v none_o of_o weight_n beside_o the_o dispute_n that_o may_v be_v occasion_v

seem_v to_o be_v so_o plain_a that_o the_o dispute_n will_v not_o be_v such_o as_o the_o force_n of_o commerce_n will_v not_o easy_o break_v through_o or_o else_o the_o clerk_n of_o every_o market_n

such_o a_o punishment_n may_v be_v for_o every_o clipper_n or_o coiner_n to_o stand_v one_o hour_n in_o the_o pillory_n then_o to_o have_v one_o half_a of_o his_o nose_n cut_v off_o and_o after_o to_o
