1. The whole Pile of Mint weights + 2412 grains = the Exchequer Pile of standard Weight

The scale being changed, the Mint Pile – 24 grains = the Exchequer Pile of standard weights

By a medium the whole Piles are equal in weight.

CCLVI oz

2 The outward weight of the Mint pile – 12gr = the outward exchequer weight

The scale being changed, the Mint outward weight – 12gr = outward exchequer weight

By a medium the outward Mint weight – 12gr = outward Exchequer weight.

CXXVIII oz.

10 The ounce Mint weight – 13gr = the like exchequer weight = j oz

11 The half ounce weight – 14gr = the like Exchequer weight = 10dwt

12 The five penny weight = the like Exchequer weight.

By another tryal of the whole Pile the Mint Pile 6gr too light in one cale & the scale being turned the whole mint Pile was 12gr too heavy. And by a Medium the Mint Pile is 3gr heavier then the Exchequer Pile.
