New Zealand Coinage Act, 1933.—Trial of the Pyx of Silver
Coins made for the Government of New Zealand by the
Royal Mint in London.
VERDICT.
WE whose names are hereunder written, having been
sworn on the thirteenth day of March, one thousand
nine hundred and thirty-four, before the King's Remembrancer, at Goldsmiths' Hall, in the City of London, have
made the assays and trials of New Zealand coins of silver
which, according to accounts produced by the officers of the
Royal Mint in London were coined in the said Mint in
accordance with the New Zealand Coinage Act, 1933, from
the 3rd day of October, one thousand nine hundred and
thirty-three, to the 15th day of February, one thousand
nine hundred and thirty-four, both days inclusive, and
were set aside and placed in the Pyx of the said Mint as
prescribed by Order in Council made under the said Act.
We ascertained the number of coins in each packet produced
to us, and that such number corresponded with the number
which the officers of the Mint represented it to contain,
and we took two coins from each of such packets of silver
coins, making altogether twenty-two half-crowns, sixteen
florins, eighteen shillings, sixteen sixpences, and thirty-four
threepences. We then weighed each one pound troy weight
(at its standard weight) of the coins so taken out and
ascertained that the said coins so bulked were within the
remedy as to weight prescribed by the New Zealand Coinage
Act, 1933. We then took for assay one pound troy (at its
standard weight) of the coins so weighed comprising thirteen
half-crowns, eight florins, nine shillings, eight sixpences,
and eighteen threepences, and we ascertained that the amount
of variation from the standard weight allowed under the
New Zealand Coinage Act, 1933, was, for such pound so taken
for assay, nil on the whole, and that, therefore, such pound
troy of silver coins weighed and assayed as aforesaid was on
the whole within the variation from standard weight so
allowed. We then assayed separately the coins in the pound
troy so taken for assay, comparing them with the standard
Trial Plate made of pure silver (as prescribed by the Imperial
Coinage Act, 1920) produced by the Board of Trade, so as to
ascertain whether the metal of the said coins was on the
whole within the remedy as to fineness prescribed by the
New Zealand Coinage Act, 1933, and we found that the
amount of variation from the standard fineness so prescribed
was minus eight ten-thousandths (-0008) on the whole of
the coins in such pound, and that, therefore, the said pound
troy of silver coins weighed and assayed as aforesaid was,
on the whole, within the variation from fineness allowed
under the New Zealand Coinage Act, 1933. We weighed
in bulk the residue of the coins remaining in the said packets
of silver coins and we ascertained that they were on the
whole within the remedy as to weight allowed under the
New Zealand Coinage Act, 1933, being sixty thousandths
of an ounce (-060) below the standard weight prescribed
by the said Act.
Dated the 2nd day of May, 1934.
