fix figures on the right hand for decimals ; but for 
Imperial money, diminifli the faid prodiid by one 
eighth of itfelf. 
For example, Cicero fays, Verres had received 
Vicks, ducenta triginta quinqe millia, quadringentos 
decern^ feptem nummos, or 2.235.417 Sefterces : this 
being Confular money, multiply by 8727, and cutting 
off fix figures from theprodud:, 19508,484159, 
or 19508 /. 9 j. 8 d. will be their value in Engliili 
money. 
Again, Suetonius relates, that when Vefpafian 
came to the Empire, ‘he found the treafury fo' ex- 
haufled, that he declared Quadringenties millies, or 
4.0.000.000.000 nummi, were wanted to fupport 
the Government (4). This was Imperial money, 
w'hich, multiplied by 8727, and cutting off fix figures 
from the produ6l, gives 349.080.000 
One eighth of which, 43.6^5.000 
being fubtraded, leaves^. 305.445.000 PountlsSterllng. 
But Budajus fuppofes, that for §luadringenties mil- 
lies, we ihould read ^adragies fnillies, which re- 
duces it to 30.544.500, and is a much more 
probable fum. 
Il the Miliarenfes of 60 in the pound were fine 
filver, and weighed 84 Troy grains, they were worth 
46,918918. .. Farthings and decimals, or almofl 
1 1 pence 3 farthings Sterling ; and the Solidus paf- 
fing tor 1 2 of them, was worth a little more than 
1 1 5. 8 d. 3 /. 
The Found of gold was worth 864 of thefe Mili- 
arenfes, amounting to 40537,94 Farthings and de-
