Light toning leaves starting to separate at head negligible light foxing to margins of first page. $450. The first printing of the Coinage in American Plantations Act of 1707 which sought to regulate currency in the American colonies. An attempt had already been made to resolve the "inconveniences" and inconsistencies of the diverse array of currencies by royal proclamation in 1704. "Rather than inspired by altruism toward the colonists" the authors of the proclamation "were much more concerned that there be a stable currency to pay the English merchants" Mossman. The proclamation was largely ignored by the colonies and openly defied by Massachusetts prompting its codification by Parliament in the present act. Despite the punishment of violators with imprisonment and fines resistance to the legislation continued. Acts such as these were compiled over the course of a session and bound afterwards. They were issued with general title pages which were often discarded as in the present example. Mossman Money of the American Colonies and Confederation 49.
