Jovel, Francisco Una Moneda Chilena de 16 Dólares? - La Primera Moneda de los Estados Unidos? 2001 Historias Acuñadas 46, illus. 2003-06-12 Oliver Hoover Wolfgang Bertsch &s.us.federal; &s.mcsa; Wolfgang Bertsch 2003-06-12 According to the law of 31 July 1789, 16 dollar gold coins had to weigh 431.4606 grains. The circulating South American Colonial 8 Escudos gold coins of the period had a weight standard of only 417.65 grains and were adjusted to the US weight standard by making a hole on the obverse of the coin and filling this hole with a piece of gold of 22 carats and weighing about 15 grains and countermarking the added gold with an oval punch bearing the number 16. This operation was most probably done by John Burger of New York. Only five Spanish American gold coins are known with this mark, among which is and 8 Escudos of the Santiago mint dated 1761. The other known coins are an 8 Escudos of the Lima mint (2 specimens), and one each from the Mexico and Popayan mints. Jovel, Francisco Jovel, Roberto Los Efectos del "Gran Escándalo" de Potosí en España 2001 Historias Acuñadas 67-73, illus. 2003-06-12 Oliver Hoover Wolfgang Bertsch &s.eur.emod; &s.mcsa; Wolfgang Bertsch 2003-06-12 A decree of the Spanish king Philip IV, dated 23rd December 1642, established that silver coins struck in American mints were to have a fineness of 11 dineros and 4 granos equal to a fineness of 0.931. Most silver coins struck in the Potosí mint up to 1649 had a much lower silver content owing to the fraud committed by mint officials, silver merchants and other officials at Potosí, called the "Great Scandal of Potosí". The authors study the problems caused to Spain by the fraudulent Potosí coinage, which was shipped to that country in great quantities (many trading partners of Spain refused to accept payments in silver coins from Potosí) and discuss the following measures that were taken to solve this problem: devaluation of the eight reales coins to six reales and of the four reales to three reales and finally the withdrawal of this coinage and reminting at Spanish mints without charging the usual minting fee (señoreaje). Jovel, Roberto 2001 Lom Ediciones 117 pp., illus. Santiago de Chile 2003-05-05 Oliver Hoover Wolfgang Bertsch &s.mcsa; Wolfgang Bertsch 2003-05-05 The author gives the following summary: "The book covers Guatemalan necessity coinage since the mid-seventeenth century, when, under the Spanish crown, debased fractional coinage from the kingdom of Peru constituted the main specie and had to be locally counterstamped. It follows Guatemalan history up until the time when, under the Central American Federation and during the siege imposed by opposing armies from El Salvador and Honduras, it was forced to issue the only obsidional coin in its entire history. Then, it identifies the different reasons for counterstamping both cob and milled coinage from abroad, undertaken by the independent Republic of Guatemala." The book deals with the following Guatemalan counterstamps: 1. "Large Crown" counterstamp of 1663. 2. Counterstamps applied to Spanish-American cobs in 1839-1840. 3. The State of Los Altos (Quetzaltenango) counterstamp of 1819-1840. 4. Counterstamps applied to milled South American coins in 1840-1841. 5. The 1/2 real counterstamp of 1894. A chapter is also dedicated to the provisional coinage of 1829.
