Copper Half-Pence at the Tower and Royal Notices
A late notice reports a quantity of copper half-pence delivered to the Tower by designated undertakers to satisfy the public, with no other copper issued by others. The advertisement also lists subscriptions for Dr Harris's History of Kent, a jewel sale, viewings at Covent Garden shops, and rewards for lost or stolen items, along with various medical and cosmetic products advertised in the same issue.
