 MEXICO. 4f83 One million, five hundred and sixt^-one thousand, two hundred and forty-nine dollars must likewise be added for the Coinage of Sombrerete, where it appears that there was a Mint in full activity from the 16th of October, 1810, to the 16th of July, 1811. The effect of this would be to render the Total Coinage of the fifteen years 159,255,840 dollars, viz. : —, Dollars. Amount given by General Table. 155,213,012 Coinage of Guanajuato, from December 1812 to May 1813. . . 311,125 Ditto from 1821 to 1825. . . 2,170,454 Coinage of Sombrerete. . . 1,561,249 Total. 159,255,840 and this again, (with the deductions specified in the first Section,) would give 10,487,986 dollars, 5 reals, as the annual average of registered produce, since the Revolution, in lieu of 10,218,464 dollars, 6 reals, at which I have estimated it. I merely state this for tne sake of correctness, as it does not affect my subsequent calculations, m which I have taken as the basis a produce of Eleven millions. Besides, the produce both of Guanajuato and Sombrerete, is given separately in the Table of Produce, as taken from official records. I annex a General Table of the total Coinage of all the Mints of Mexico, including that of the Capital, from the year 1733, when it was first placed under the direction of the Government, and returns of the annual coinage regularly kept. By this it will appear, that the sum of 1,435,658,611 dol- lars has been registered as the produce of the mines of Mexico in ninety-three years, (from 1733 to June 1826.) 2 I 2
