Which would be an attempt I doubt of pernicious Consequence, and instead of that I have made a provision; whereby questionless as much Plate will be crouded into the Mint with all the speed imaginable, as shall make up in tale the two millions of Pounds Sterling of clipt money which when melted down produced but one; and then I presume the extraordinariness of the encouragement may, and ought to Cease. AX. II. _That our coyn cannot be secured against Exportation, Melting down, and Hoarding up, unless it have either a real, or_ extrinsick _value above the_ intrinsick. AX. III. _That a_ real _value to make up the want of_ intrinsick _given to Money, will be more satisfactory to all His Majesties good Subjects than a mere_ extrinsick _value above the_ intrinsick. AX. IV. _That the_ real _value of Money ought to be more than the_ intrinsick, _and equal to the_ extrinsick. AX. V. _That Money cannot have a_ real _value over and above the_ intrinsick, _unless that over and above value be settled by an unquestionable Security applicable to every particular persons Use_. PROPOSITION. _Now I humbly propose to the Consideration of better judgments the doing of these things._ 1. The speedy calling in all the clipt and diminished Money of the old Standard, and intirely satisfying every Proprietor, by paying them 75 _l._ _per Cent._ back in Specie, and ascertaining to ’em the remainder by Parliament Security. 2. The leaving as small an interstice of time as is possible between the calling in the old Money and issuing out of New. 3. That therefore vast Encouragement be given for the speedy bringing in three or four Millions of ounces of Plate to the Mint, to answer the present Necessities of the King and People. 4. That the Exportation of Silver Money beyond the Permission of the _King_ and _Parliament_, be effectually hinder’d. 5. That a Provision be made as shall leave no Temptation for the melting that down which shall be Coin’d. 6. Nor for hoarding it up. 7. That the Importation of Silver from all parts be encouraged, and the Current Silver-Coin of _England_ encreased to Five millions of Pounds Sterling. 8. That the Standard, in respect of Allay, be kept to its old Purity. 9. That the Denomination of the new Money be equal to the old. 10. That every one of the aforesaid Articles be accomplish’d at no more expence to the Publick than Two hundred and fifty thousand Pounds at present, and a Land-Tax of a Penny in the Pound during the War, or, at the most, Two Pence in the Pound. Theorem. For the effecting all the aforesaid Articles, _Let a Competent Authority immediately Call in and Cry down all Clipt Money under such a weight, supposing it to be all that Money which hath lost full half the original weight_.
