198 HENRY SYMONDS. the crown, is found on groats and half-groats which bear the initials of the three Queens. The smaller denomination does not occur without I or A or K on the reverse, and it must have been struck in very limited quantities, as these half-groats are among the rarest of the Tudor series of Irish coins. (Cp. Handbook, p. 228, no. 52.) An interesting question arises as to whether the English gold crowns and half-crowns, and the George noble and its half, bearing I, A, or K should necessarily conform to the sequence which I have suggested for the Irish silver, but the point is outside my present subject. With regard to the initials H R, I presume that they denote the periods when Henry VIII was without a consort ; for example, the King was a widower for more than two years after the death of Queen Jane in October, 1537. Before leaving the first coinage I will state the results of an assay of two groats, which tend to show that the prescribed standard of fineness was about 10 oz. in the pound Troy, the contemporary standard of the English silver moneys being 11 oz. 2 dwt. fine. Irish groat, "Dominus" H I mint-mark Crown, 10 oz. 2 dwt. 6 grs. fine silver in the pound Troy. A similar groat, with H A, proved to be 10 oz. 4 dwt. grs. fine. I have noticed that the quality of the silver coins in the sixteenth century is often slightly better than the respective standards ; on the other hand the weights of the pieces generally exhibit a deficiency. The weight of the first-issue groats when in fine con- dition averages about 38Jgrs. each, and the half-groats in proportion. Apparently the Irish currency was not included in

THE SECOND COINAGE, 1540. at the Star Chamber In this year another commission was directed to the officers at the Tower mint. Dr. Aquilla Smith sets out the terms of the order and tells us (op. cit, pp. 167-8) that they had been communicated to him. Unhappily, the extract is incomplete and inaccurate, according to my reading of the original text, and it will therefore be desirable again to quote its provisions : Commission to Kauf Rowlett and Martin Bowes, masters of the Tower mint, and others, dated 13 July, 32 Henry VIII (1540). The King resolved to cause to be newly made certain moneys of silver to be current within his Dominion of Ireland and not elsewhere, at certain values and rates, having the arms of his realm and a scripture about the same, as by him appointed, on the one side, and the arms of the Dominion of Ireland, namely a harp crowned, and a scripture about the same, on the other side. And the same money to be of a standard lately devised, namely 9 oz. fine silver and 3 oz. alloy in the pound Troy, that is to say, of an alloy of 40 dwt. worse in the pound Troy than is the sterling money of England made according to the indentures of 6 April in the 24th year (1533). And the said money shall " keep in number " 144 in the pound weight, which shall be current in Ireland and be called sixpence Irish ; and also the "demy pieces " of the same, which shall be there current and be called threepence Irish, and shall keep in number 288 in the pound weight, of like print and fineness, which corresponds in weight and fineness with divers old coins then current in Ireland. The remedy was to be 2 dwt. in the pound. The masters were to take up for charges 2s. in each pound weight. (Patent Roll, 32 Henry VIII, part 4, m. 11.) I observe that there are no stipulations for the use of a privy mark or for a trial of the pyx. Evidently the primary object of this commission was to reduce the
