❧ By the King . A Proclamation touching the currencie of certaine French Coyne .

WHereas the Kings most Excellent MAIESTIE by His Royall Proclamation bearing date the fourth day of September now last past ( for the reasons therein mentioned ) did publish and declare , that such French Moneys as His Maiesty had then lately receiued , for part of the Portion of His deare Consort the Queene , should be current in Specie , as He receiued it from His good brother the French King , at the rate of nineteene pence halfepeny the Cardecue , being the selfe same value , at which it is currant in the Countrey of France , because at that time those French Moneys could not conueniently be new coyned at his Maiesties Mint : Neuerthelesse , for auoyding of such inconuenience as might ensue to his highnesse , and his louing Subiects , by bringing in and vttering of light Coyne , his Maiestie did thereby straitly forbid the importing into this Realme , or any other of his Maiesties Dominions , any of the sayd Coyne called Cardecues , vpon paine of Confiscation thereof .

Now his Maiestie finding that which Hee then foresaw and feared , that vnder colour of the Cardecues then receiued by his Maiestie , and made Currant for his Maiesties present vse , other like Moneys which were light would bee imported into this Realme , to his Maiesties preiudice , and preiudice of His louing Subiects who should receiue the same ; By the aduice of His Priuie Counsell , doth now hereby publish and declare His Royall pleasure . That none of those Moneys called Cardecues shall bee at all Currant within this Realme , or any other of his Maiesties Dominions , but that the said former Proclamation , dated the fourth day of September last , shall bee from hencefoorth vtterly reuoked and made voyd .

Giuen at His Maiesties Court at White-hall , the 24. day of Iuly , in the second yeee of his Highnesse Reigne of Great Britaine , France , and Ireland . God saue the King .

Imprinted at London by Bonham Norton and Iohn Bill , Printers to the Kings most Excellent Maiestie . 1626.
