1. By a resolution of the Governor-General in Council, dated the
10th of September, 1824, the Furruckabad rupee was ordered to be coined
. of one hundred and eighty grains, one hundred and sixty-five fine and
fifteen alloy, and was declared the legal currency of the Saugor and Ner-
buddah territories. It is considered expedient to adopt this weight and
standard for the Furruckabad rupee at the Calcutta as well as at the
Saugor mint, instead of that described in Section V. Regulation XI. 1819,
from which it dihers very slightly, and to make the Furruckabad currency
correspond in weight and intrinsic value with the new currency of the
Madras and Bombay presidencies. It is likewise convenient to make a
trifling alteration in the weight of the Calcutta sicca rupee, as prescribed
by Clause First, Section 1. Regulation XIV. 1818. It is further conve-
nient to introduce the weight of the Furruckabad rupee, as the unit of a
general system of weights for Government transactions throughout India,
under the native and well-known denomination of the Tola. The following
rules have accordingly been enacted by the Governor-General in Council,
to be in force from the date of their promulgation.
* There is no Regulation or Act withdrawing the Furruckabad rupee from circulation ; hut
under Act XVII. 1835, the " Company's rupee," which is of the same weight and standard
as the Furruckabad rupee, is the only rupee now struck.
