The Gold exported for India from the 2.d of March 1673 to the 11th of March. 1674 was by Entry at the Custome house for the port of London five hundred Sixty odd thousand pounds beside was exported without Entry & in out Ports. The Company exporting so great quantities of Gold & Silver has inhanc'd the price of Standard Silver from under 5s the ounce to 5.s 4d which is ten percent & a 20s piece of broad mony to 24s which is 20 percent. & Guin.ee in proportion which is so much value above his Majestie's Coin that it doth not only hinder the Bullion of Gold & Silver being Coin'd but hath occasion'd all the weighty Coin to be Culled & Melted into Bullion so that theres not above 15 or 20 pounds of Currant money in £ 100.- when the light & Clipt is taken out.

It is thought there's not above 4 or 5 Millions of mony left in this kingdome which is not Sufficient to manage the trade which is reputed to be above 40 Mill.s per Year. The Free Exporting of Gold & Silver & laying so great Impositions by Mulet on all the Commodoties & Manufact.ures of this kingdome hindreth the Exporting thereof which hath brought down the price of Land, Lead, Tin, Wool & all Wollen Manufactures & others.
