Representation of the gold, and silver coin, upon the lowering Guineas to 21 shi's, report to Lords Commissioners of His Majesty's Treasury
Manuscripts
This manuscript is a handwritten report Newton prepared for the British Treasury. In it, he reviews the price of silver, in proportion to gold, in the various countries of Europe, which is generally slightly higher than in England. This causes the English shillings and plate to be melted down and exported at a profit. To prevent this, Newton proposes to reduce the value of the guinea. Parliament accepted this recommendation and this rate has remained in effect ever since.
