Note 77 — Chapter II
N. I. (Nahum Isaac) Stone translation
“The Currency Question Reviewed, etc., by a Banker.” (Edinburgh, 1845, p. 69.)
“Si un écu un peu usé etait reputé valoir quelque chose de moins qu’un écu tout neuf, la circulation se trouverait continuellement arrêtée, et il n’y aurait pas un seul payement qui ne fut matière à contestation.” (G. Garnier, l. c. t. I., p. 24.) (“If an ecu slightly used would pass for a little less than an entirely new ecu, circulation would be continually interfered with, and not a payment would take place that would not give rise to controversy.”)
