Note 306 — Chapter III
Reading edition
Castelnau, Book III, chap, ii, says 42,000,000; Throckmorton put the figures at 43,000,000: C. S. P. For., No. 1,032, February 26, 1561; cf. No. 988, February 12, 1561; Suriano, the Venetian ambassador, also gives the amount as eighteen million crowns (ibid., Ven., No. 237, February 17, 1561). This would approximate $75,000,000.
