Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Director of the Mint to the Secretary of the Treasury: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1878 As nearly as can be ascertained, the cost of manufacturing silver coin is, on the average, about four times as great as that of gold when the gold coinage is in denominations less than ten-dollar pieces. Our gold coinage since the suspension of specie payments in 1861 has consisted principally of double eagles, and the relative cost, as stated, of coining the two metals has, therefore, been exceeded. There is practically no difference in the cost of manufacturing a double eagle from that of a silver dollar.
