B04865	A proposition for remeding the debasement of coyne in Scotland		1696 (1696)	Wing P3774B; ESTC R182207	4,263	16

a_o proposition_n for_o remede_v the_o debasement_n of_o coin_n in_o scotland_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o raise_v of_o the_o denomination_n of_o the_o standard_n of_o our_o coin_n above_o the_o standard_n of_o england_n by_o the_o act_n of_o parliament_n 1686._o and_o what_o have_v follow_v on_o the_o say_a act_n be_v not_o only_o express_o contrair_a to_o the_o mutual_a contract_n betwixt_o the_o two_o kingdom_n anno_fw-la 16_o but_o be_v in_o itself_o one_o of_o the_o great_a cause_n of_o the_o nation_n poverty_n for_o by_o it_o all_o our_o good_n be_v sell_v at_o a_o unperceave_v undervalue_v in_o so_o far_o that_o we_o own_o and_o receive_v the_o english_a crown_n and_o so_o every_o species_n of_o their_o money_n proportionable_o at_o 5sh_a 5_o d._n sterl_n which_o be_v 8_o ⅓_n more_o than_o its_o value_n in_o england_n and_o when_o we_o give_v back_o that_o crown_n to_o england_n they_o will_v receive_v it_o only_o at_o 5sh_n so_o we_o give_v our_o good_n for_o 8_o ⅓_n less_o than_o we_o be_v aware_a of_o and_o when_o we_o buy_v we_o lose_v 8_o ⅓_n of_o what_o money_n we_o pay_v in_o english_a coin_n i_o know_v its_o thought_n that_o the_o raise_v of_o the_o english_a crown_n etc._n etc._n will_v induce_v people_n to_o bring_v in_o many_o more_o of_o these_o crown_n etc._n etc._n than_o other_o way_n they_o will_v do_v which_o be_v a_o mistake_n for_o any_o who_o be_v to_o bring_v in_o 13_o of_o these_o crown_n to_o buy_v scot_n good_n if_o the_o crown_n do_v pass_v at_o 5sh_n sterline_v needs_o only_o now_o bring_v 12_o of_o they_o because_o the_o 5_o d._n raise_v on_o each_o one_o make_v up_o the_o 13_o the_o and_o so_o it_o be_v evident_a it_o occasion_n a_o few_o number_n of_o crown_n to_o be_v import_v and_o if_o it_o be_v say_v that_o yet_o it_o invite_v people_n to_o bring_v more_o 12_o crown_n because_o 12_o gain_n 1_o to_o they_o and_o so_o it_o will_v occasion_v more_o of_o our_o good_n to_o be_v buy_v this_o thought_n creep_v in_o on_o man_n who_o do_v not_o examine_v thing_n for_o 1_o o._n the_o evidence_n still_o prove_v that_o in_o place_n of_o 13_o there_o be_v but_o 12_o import_v 2_o o._n it_o prove_v in_o place_n of_o 5sh_n &_o 5_o d._n we_o get_v but_o real_a 5sh_n 3_o o._n the_o merchand_n who_o need_v our_o good_n will_v buy_v what_o he_o needs_o or_o so_o much_o of_o it_o as_o he_o know_v of_o mercat_n for_o albeit_o his_o crown_n be_v receive_v at_o no_o more_o than_o 5sh_v and_o albeit_o his_o crown_n be_v take_v at_o 5sh_n 6_o d._n he_o will_v buy_v no_o more_o than_o will_v answer_v his_o end_n and_o suit_v his_o mercat_n 4_o o._n if_o money_n be_v raise_v only_o to_o invite_v merchand_n to_o buy_v great_a quantity_n of_o our_o good_n we_o have_v a_o easy_a medium_fw-la for_o that_o end_n viz._n to_o sell_v a_o crown_n worth_a at_o 4sh_n &_o 7_o d._n and_o so_o the_o merchand_n have_v our_o good_n cheap_a by_o 5_o d._n and_o by_o the_o raise_a crown_n he_o have_v no_o more_o and_o as_o this_o be_v easy_a so_o it_o be_v safe_a than_o the_o raise_n of_o denomination_n as_o will_v appear_v by_o the_o follow_v other_o mischief_n of_o our_o raise_a standard_n viz_o the_o raise_n of_o money_n in_o one_o species_n have_v naturalie_a oblige_v we_o to_o raise_v all_o other_o coin_n proportionable_o not_o only_o our_o own_o but_o all_o foreign_a coin_n so_o that_o now_o from_o whence_o soever_o money_n be_v bring_v to_o buy_v our_o good_n they_o bring_v in_o 8_o ⅓_n less_o money_n than_o they_o will_v bring_v in_o be_v our_o standard_n as_o former_o we_o also_o sell_v all_o our_o good_n to_o every_o nation_n or_o person_n at_o 8_o ⅓_n less_o than_o they_o pay_v to_o we_o former_o and_o whatever_o we_o buy_v from_o any_o foreign_a place_n or_o people_n we_o must_v add_v 8_o ⅓_n more_o of_o money_n to_o buy_v it_o than_o we_o do_v former_o for_o as_o be_v demonstrat_fw-la in_o the_o english_a crown_n so_o it_o be_v as_o plain_a in_o the_o ordinary_a dollar_n for_o who_o former_o pay_v at_o 58_o d._n sterl_n in_o cross-dollar_n or_o patacoon_n behove_v to_o give_v we_o 2_o d._n to_o make_v up_o the_o 58_o d_o but_o now_o he_o pay_v we_o 58._o and_o keep_v his_o 2_o d._n to_o himself_o and_o in_o like_a manner_n he_o who_o pay_v we_o 60_o d._n in_o bank_n or_o some_o imperial-dollar_n behove_v to_o give_v we_o a_o bank-dol●ar_a and_o 2_o d._n more_o now_o he_o pay_v we_o 60_o d._n by_o the_o dollar_n alone_o and_o keep_v the_o 2_o d._n so_o i●_n ducatons_n he_o who_o pay_v we_o 74_o d._n behove_v to_o add_v 4_o d._n to_o make_v up_o 74_o d._n now_o the_o bare_a ducatons_n pay_v 74_o d._n and_o he_o retain_v 4_o d._n to_o himself_o and_o as_o we_o loss_n so_o much_o by_o what_o the_o importer_n of_o money_n bring_v in_o less_o than_o he_o will_v have_v do_v have_v our_o standard_n stand_v as_o it_o be_v former_o so_o when_o ever_o we_o pay_v 58_o d._n to_o a_o foreigner_n for_o his_o good_n we_o must_v add_v 2_o d._n to_o the_o patacoon_n to_o make_v up_o 58_o d._n when_o we_o pay_v 60_o d._n we_o must_v add_v 2_o d._n to_o the_o bank-dollar_n and_o when_o we_o pay_v 74_o d._n to_o a_o foreigner_n we_o must_v add_v 4_o d._n to_o the_o ducatoon_n but_o it_o may_v be_v say_v we_o will_v raise_v the_o price_n of_o our_o native_a good_n in_o proportion_n to_o what_o we_o want_v by_o the_o coyn._a the_o weakness_n of_o this_o argument_n will_v appear_v if_o you_o reflect_v that_o in_o the_o first_o place_n before_o we_o raise_v our_o good_n we_o be_v cheat_v and_o until_o their_o price_n rise_v and_o rise_v from_o this_o cause_n for_o if_o the_o price_n rise_v by_o other_o cause_n as_o by_o the_o scarcity_n of_o our_o good_n in_o other_o place_n or_o other_o emergent_a cause_n then_o the_o foreigner_n behove_v to_o import_v the_o money_n at_o the_o former_a standart_n and_o as_o much_o more_o also_o as_o our_o good_n be_v more_o value_v abroad_o than_o former_o but_o this_o solution_n refute_v what_o be_v argue_v before_o for_o raise_v the_o standard_n viz._n that_o of_o raise_v the_o denomination_n people_n be_v invite_v to_o import_v money_n for_o if_o he_o must_v still_o pay_v as_o much_o money_n as_o he_o do_v former_o what_o invitation_n do_v he_o get_v from_o raise_v the_o denomination_n to_z what_o be_v thus_o argue_v against_o raise_v the_o of_o the_o standart_n add_v these_o yet_o more_o weighty_a argument_n 10._o money_n give_v no_o more_o abroad_o by_o our_o raise_v its_o denomination_n so_o that_o money_n employ_v in_o trade_n by_o cambion_n be_v in_o other_o place_n especial_o with_o all_o prudent_a nation_n the_o same_o it_o be_v without_o any_o alteration_n by_o our_o raise_n it_o so_o that_o as_o less_o be_v bring_v in_o to_o we_o for_o our_o good_n so_o we_o must_v send_v out_o the_o same_o in_o value_n and_o more_o of_o our_o denomination_n than_o we_o send_v out_o former_o 20._o that_o money_n be_v of_o no_o more_o use_n than_o dead_a uncoyned_a metal_n unless_o it_o be_v
