COINS FOR POLAND
MINTED IN STATES
r - ‘
(By Associated Tress)
WARSAW, Jan. 27.—Both consign
ments of silver coins ordered by Po
land from the United Statse mint at
Philadelphia and the private British
mint at Birmingham, were found un
satisfactory by the Polish government.
The British royal mint, which prom
ised to inspect the Polish coins minted
by the private mint, sent one of its di
rectors to Poland immediately after
the report from Poland as to the un
satisfactory coinage reached England.
The defective minting in England
is attributde to the fact that the coins
were struck from dies made in France
not corresponding to British minting
machinery. It has been decided that
the defective coins will be withdrawn
and the British mint will remint them
with dies made specially for the pur
pose.
Poland is to suffer no loss through
the defective minting of the first con
signment of coins.
