profit is made on this coinage.
4. But it is necssary first to know ap-
proximately the cost of a mint and its establishment capable of turning out $125 per day, and 3,000,000
pieces of Subsid-
iary coin per fortnight. Nine-tenths of the subsidiary coin
•
is 10 cent pieces, and one stamp would be necessary for sup- plying bronze coins. I shall be glad if information as to
the cost of such a Mint can be procured.
I have the honour to be,
Sir.
Your most obedient,
Humble servant,
Henry Arshake
GOVERNOR, &C.、
