Money. 



Silver is the legally constituted medium of exchange in 

 all money transactions throughout all the British Indian 

 Possessions. Gold coin was intended to be a legal tender, 

 at a fixed value of 16 rupees for the gold mohur of Calcutta, 

 and 15 rupees for the gold rupee of Madras and Bombay; 

 but it is not demandable in payment, and is left to find its 

 current value in the market. 



Value sterling.
