What reading level is History of American Coinage book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Since the passage of the Act of 1834 there has been no change in the ratio at which the two metals have been coined in the United States, although the 94 History of American Coinage market ratio is now about 36 to I, owing to the great decline in the price of silver bullion. In the opinion of many persons versed in our coin- age history, the demonetization of the silver dollar in the United States dates from the passage of this act, while some think it was the result of the Act of 1853. We know... that before the passage of the Act of 1834, which reduced the weight of the gold coins, gold did not circulate to any extent ; neither did the American silver dollar, for reasons already stated. It was not the purpose of the Act of 1834 to prevent the circulation of the subsidiary coins, but to reduce the amount of gold in the gold coins so that they and the silver coins would circulate together; but through a mistake on the part of Congress, gold was overvalued and this caused the silver coins to be withdrawn from circulation, one of the very things it was hoped the act would prevent.
