Proclamation on Foreign Coin Values in Ireland 1712
The Lords Justices and Council publish a royal proclamation restoring current values for foreign gold and silver coins after a fire destroyed the original seal. It lists specific coin pieces including Spanish quadruple doubloon, pistoles, Morados, and pesos with their accepted weights and payments, dated July 17 1712 and effective August 12. The notice directs values and duties for many foreign currencies to be used in payments within the kingdom.
