more were coined, (2,170,454 dollars,) which ought, consequently, to be added to the 155,213,012 dollars, at which I have estimated the whole Coinage of New Spain, during the fifteen years immediately subsequent to the Revolution.
One million, five hundred and sixty-one thousand, two hundred and forty-nine dollars must likewise be added for the Coinage of Sŏmbrĕrētĕ, where it appears that there was a Mint in full activity from the 16th of October, 1810, to the 16th of July, 1811.
The effect of this would be to render the Total Coinage of the fifteen years 159,255,840 dollars, viz.:—
Dollars. | |
Amount given by General Table | 155,213,012 |
Coinage of Guanajuato, from December 1812 to May 1813. | 311,125 |
Ditto from 1821 to 1825 | 2,170,454 |
Coinage of Sombrerete | 1,561,249 |
————— | |
Total | 159,255,840 |
and this again, (with the deductions specified in the first Section,) would give 10,487,986 dollars, 5 reals, as the annual average of registered produce, since the Revolution, in lieu of 10,218,464 dollars, 6 reals, at which I have estimated it.
I merely state this for the sake of correctness, as it does not affect my subsequent calculations, in which I have taken as the basis a produce of Eleven millions.
