no-coin-dated-figure

No document names how many coins were struck bearing the date 1931. These are report-year figures, on 2 different bases (struck-in-report-year and issued), and a coin dated 1931 was drawn from deliveries like these. Treating one of them as the mintage of a 1931 coin is what most published figures do, and it is the conflation this catalogue exists to document: the reports themselves record dates carrying over from one report year into the next.

Two readings of the same year's Melbourne gold, on different bases. The branch gold table gives 57,779 as coin ISSUED during the year, read positionally from a table the transcription flattens. The report's prose gives 57,717 as the year's COINAGE, and that sentence checks itself against the dies used. They differ by -62 pieces (-0.11%), which is too small to be a misreading and is what coining and issuing differ by. Both are kept; the coinage figure carries the stronger evidence.

summed-from-components

Australia's whole coinage of this denomination for 1919, summed across 3 branches (Melbourne, Perth, Sydney). Every part counts the same thing, issued, which is what makes the sum meaningful; it is still a report-year quantity and not a count of coins bearing the date 1919. 3 parts are POSITIONAL readings of a table the transcription flattens, with nothing to check against, so the sum is no firmer than that. The branch figures are on their own pages.

different-basis

Two readings of the same year's Melbourne gold, on different bases. The branch gold table gives 514,257 as coin ISSUED during the year, read positionally from a table the transcription flattens. The report's prose gives 514,500 as the year's COINAGE, and that sentence checks itself against the dies used. They differ by +243 pieces (0.05%), which is too small to be a misreading and is what coining and issuing differ by. Both are kept; the coinage figure carries the stronger evidence.

No document names how many coins were struck bearing the date 1914. These are report-year figures, on 3 different bases (issued and struck-in-report-year and unstated), and a coin dated 1914 was drawn from deliveries like these. Treating one of them as the mintage of a 1914 coin is what most published figures do, and it is the conflation this catalogue exists to document: the reports themselves record dates carrying over from one report year into the next.

Australia struck this denomination at 3 branches in 1909, and each figure is here, but NO NATIONAL TOTAL IS GIVEN because they do not count the same thing: issued against unstated. Adding them would produce a number that means neither. At least one part is a POSITIONAL reading of a table the transcription flattens, with nothing to check it against, and carries that lower standing here too. At least one part is confirmed by its own table: the sovereign and half sovereign figures imply the total value, which the table prints. The branch figures are on their own pages, and the date on a coin is a separate question again from any of them.

Australia struck this denomination at 3 branches in 1908, and each figure is here, but NO NATIONAL TOTAL IS GIVEN because they do not count the same thing: issued against unstated. Adding them would produce a number that means neither. At least one part is a POSITIONAL reading of a table the transcription flattens, with nothing to check it against, and carries that lower standing here too. At least one part is confirmed by its own table: the sovereign and half sovereign figures imply the total value, which the table prints. The branch figures are on their own pages, and the date on a coin is a separate question again from any of them.

summed-from-components

Australia's whole coinage of this denomination for 1903, summed across 3 branches (Melbourne, Perth, Sydney). Every part counts the same thing, unstated, which is what makes the sum meaningful; it is still a report-year quantity and not a count of coins bearing the date 1903. 3 parts are POSITIONAL readings of a table the transcription flattens, with nothing to check against, so the sum is no firmer than that. The branch figures are on their own pages.

summed-from-components

Australia's whole coinage of this denomination for 1897, summed across 2 branches (Melbourne, Sydney). Every part counts the same thing, issued, which is what makes the sum meaningful; it is still a report-year quantity and not a count of coins bearing the date 1897. 2 parts are POSITIONAL readings of a table the transcription flattens, with nothing to check against, so the sum is no firmer than that. The branch figures are on their own pages.

Australia struck this denomination at 2 branches in 1888, and each figure is here, but NO NATIONAL TOTAL IS GIVEN because they do not count the same thing: unstated against struck-in-report-year. Adding them would produce a number that means neither. At least one part is a POSITIONAL reading of a table the transcription flattens, with nothing to check it against, and carries that lower standing here too. The branch figures are on their own pages, and the date on a coin is a separate question again from any of them.

summed-from-components

Australia's whole coinage of this denomination for 1873, summed across 2 branches (Melbourne, Sydney). Every part counts the same thing, unstated, which is what makes the sum meaningful; it is still a report-year quantity and not a count of coins bearing the date 1873. 1 of 2 part is confirmed by its own table: the sovereign and half sovereign figures imply the total value, which the table prints. 1 part is a POSITIONAL reading of a table the transcription flattens, with nothing to check against, so the sum is no firmer than that. The branch figures are on their own pages.

Australia struck this denomination at 2 branches in 1872, and each figure is here, but NO NATIONAL TOTAL IS GIVEN because they do not count the same thing: unstated against issued. Adding them would produce a number that means neither. At least one part is a POSITIONAL reading of a table the transcription flattens, with nothing to check it against, and carries that lower standing here too. The branch figures are on their own pages, and the date on a coin is a separate question again from any of them.

Not copied from a table. Each row is the standard the instrument named beside it actually prescribed, and the fine metal weight is derived from that standard rather than looked up. Where a column says "not stated", the instrument does not state it and we will not supply a number it does not carry.

What the mints reported

These are not mintages by date, and this catalogue will not print them as if they were. They are what the Sydney, Melbourne and Perth branches reported striking, delivering or issuing during a report year. A single year's delivery routinely carried two dates: the 1958 report says florins and sixpences to a stated value "were dated 1957; the remainder of the coin delivered being dated 1958".

64 records. 40 of them are recorded in pounds sterling rather than in coins, because that is how the mints kept the books. 0 name the date borne by the coin. On 3 occasions the report states the same output both ways, in money and in coins, and the two agree exactly once converted: that is the pound ledger showing itself.
