U.S. National Archives (Record Group 104, Entry 23, Franklin Peale correspondence)
Beschreibung:
Correspondence primarily between Franklin Peale and Mint Director Samuel Moore. Photocopies from the Craig Sholley library, generally originating from the National Archives, record group 104, entry 23 (Peale correspondence), although some of the material may be from the general correspondence files (National Archives, record group 104, entries 1 and 3).
Large format handwritten volume of about 250 pages recording the minutes of the Board of Directors of a second early Pittsburgh bank, with various supplementary documents included.
Mint Director Samuel Moore's report for the year 1832.
Paul Hybert summary: "A short report from mint director Samuel Moore to President Jackson, who relayed it to Congress. With the increasing domestic gold production, the U.S. mines produced one-sixth as much gold as was produced by the mines of Europe and America. The decline in coin production is blamed on the epidemics in the eastern U.S. cities."
