  FIP: HALF A BIT
  

  Len Augsberger writes: "The Maryland Historical Magazine,
  Winter 2004, has a short discussion of newspaper prices
  c. 1830-1850. Papers were priced at one "fip" (6 1/4 cents,
  half a Spanish bit) at the beginning of the period, some offering
  subscriptions at two fips/week. No doubt many other
  commodities of the same era were similarly priced in Spanish
  bits. The "penny press" was introduced later, with advances
  in printing technology reducing the cost of daily papers to as
  little as one cent."
