Dear Hanna,

Further to our telephone discussion about the Hong Kong proof set venture by World Coin Corporation, I am enclosing a copy of a letter that Dowling sent to the Treasury on this matter; paragraph 3 summarises our views. I should perhaps point out that the Royal Mint in entering into contracts with overseas countries to market proof coins does not ask for a long term commitment. The contract applies only to the issue of proof coins in question.

If there is any further information required about this matter perhaps you would contact me.

Yours sincerely,
