1760-1829: Merchant Bills




London:

S$ 1. =  £ 0.2750

£ 1. = S$ 3.64

New York: On August 12, 1811, T.D. DuBois charged Marquand &Pauling USD$ 97.64 for 83.70 Ozt of Standard/Spanish Silver and $28 for 144 Spoons. Where 1 Tablespoon @ 1.72 Ozt cost $0.1944 for workmanship, the difference between 1798 Retail and 1811 Wholesale is evident.


The S$ . assumed at 0.7801 Ozt Fine Ag, and assuming S$ 98. for USD$ 97.64 (Junk Pesos, average 0.85408 Ozt per $1.) ~ -1.21% underweight and appropriate as scrap, the Market value of a full-weight Spanish Dollar should be in excess of US$ 1.0086 per coin.


August 1811: 1 Troy Ounce Silver (Spanish Coin @ NYC) = USD$ 1.1665
August 1811: 1 Troy Oz. Silverware (Alloy: Whols @ NYC) = USD$ 1.3610
1811: 1 Troy Oz. Fine Silver (Mfg., Whols @ NYC) = USD$ 1.75

Assumed Par being S$ 1. = US (Ag Coin) $ 1.0086, the August 1811 wholesale cost for ~2.5 Kgs of Coin Silver likely included a small (unknown) Premium.
