W 1688 roku cena złota i srebra wzrosła o 20%. Nie było czasu na zbieranie i odlewanie monet obiegowych. Dlatego też, na mocy ustawy z 04 sierpnia 1688 r., wartość srebrnych i złotych monet również wzrosła o 20%. Jednak w ciągu ~150 lat monety pozostały niezmienione, a monety obiegowe miały wartość o ~20% wyższą niż oznaczone.

In 1688 the price of the gold ant the silver rise 20%. There was no time to collect and cast the circulating coin. Therefore, by the Law 04AUG1688, the value of the silver and gold coins was also increased 20%. However, during ~150 years the coinage remains unchanged with the circulating coins having a value ~20% above the marked.
