Description
"Based on documentary evidence and original sources, this work offers a history of the Massachusetts Mint from its founding in 1652. The author discusses political, legislative and economic factors along with an examination of production issues, minting techniques and the personnel responsible for the success of the mint. Also, using John Hull's surviving ledger, the author traces the productivity and profitability of the mint during the 1670's. A chronology is included tracing significant events in the history of the mint from its founding through its closing and the continuing requests to re-establish the mint through the period up to Queen Anne's Proclamation of 1704. This volume is published by the Colonial Coin Collectors Club in conjunction with the 350th anniversary of the founding of the Massachusetts Mint, 1652-2002."--BOOK JACKET.
