This is exactly my point Dave in terms of Syd needing to review=20 Davis in detail to get more of the facts here...
This is not a situation on the factual VALIDITY of Swifts comments=20 as a determining factor on the degree of circulation of Wood's Brass=20 pieces as Swift calls them but the overal EFFECT of Swifts comments=20 on the OVERALL degree of circulation in 1723 and 1724.
Further ... Davis's overview of the Drapiers along with other=20 NUMEROUS historical documents he reviews and comments in his book=20 will OPEN THE EYES of the researcher to the detremental effects=20 these latters had on this ability of this coinage to freely=20 circulate in Ireland. This degree is left for the reader at this=20 point in time within C4.=20
