I don’t mean by sending Us over such a Counterfeit as shall be of Less intrinsick Value than our Own; but they can Afford all the Charge of Curious Coinage, and Pure Silver, and Full Weight, and Hazard of Importing it contrary to all Laws that We can Make; If any more considerable Sum, than Twenty _per Cent._ could be Gain’d by such Importation: But no body can afford all the Charge and Hazard, if the Profit be no Greater, and the Punishment Capital. Corol. II. Nevertheless, provision may be Made, that all _Counterfeit Money_ shall be Confiscated by a Summary Process, to be Tryed by a Jury of _Moneyers_, for every Sum above _Five Pounds_; and for Less Sums, able and substantial _Goldsmiths_ shall be Commissioned and Authorised to end Disputes, Cutting it Asunder before the Owners Face; and Charging themselves in a Book kept for that purpose, as Debters to the King for the same individual pieces, which at the General Quarter Sessions they shall deliver for the _KING_’s Use. Some such Method as This, would make people more Cautious in taking Counterfeit Money; whereas now they Take what they themselves Know to be so, which hath given great Encouragement to Counterfeiters. And if I may be Well Heard, I don’t at all Question, but to shew a Way; how all Counterfeit Money may be easily Known; let it be Wash’d, Plated; of mixt Metal, or pure Silver; Which is the next piece of Service of this Nature, that I designe my Country, _GOD_ continuing my Life and Health. Corol. III. I humbly Propound to the Disquisition of Better Judgments; Whether the New Coin ought not alwayes to be of the same continued Weight, notwithstanding any Variations in the Price of Bullion; and that not the Weight of Coin, but the Aforementioned Interest be Varied from Year to Year according to the Price of Bullion. The Advantages and Conveniences of what I have Proposed, is, I hope, by this time, somewhat Evident; but before I Reckon ’em up, it may perhaps be Expected that I should Faithfully and Candidly let down all those _Objections_ which have Occurr’d to me whilst I have been Writing these Papers. The most Material I will: And they are These. _Object._ I. _Now, if it be Objected, that Five Pounds_ per Cent. _for want of_ Silver, _in an Hundred Pound is too little, seeing an Hundred Pound Bagg-full is entitled to no more than Twenty Shillings a Year_: I Answer, That if a Man be contented to put in his Money into any of the New Banks, at 3 _l. per Cent._ ’tis better worth to lend it at 5 _per Cent. per Annum_, upon as good Security.
