Japan, like every other country 'of
Asia, has had heretofore a money system
based on the value of silver, although
the law made both gold and silver coins
legal tender to any amount. Tho ratio
was not exactly "sixteen to one," but
about sixteen and a quarter to one. The
silver yen weighs four hundred and
sixteen grains, or a little less than one
percent, more than the American dollar ;
the ten-yen gold-piece weighs sixteen
and two-thirds grams, a third of one per
cent, less than our eagle.
Very little gold was offered for coinage,
and, the universal currency of the
country was, nnd is, silver. It is now
proposed to make gold tho standard.
This is to bo done by accepting the com
mercial fact that the silver yen is now
the basis of all values, and by coining at
the current ra'io.
The new gold coins will weigh abot
one-half as much as the old ones of the
same denomination, of which there are
very few in existence and none in
circulation. Tho new ratio will be
thirty-two and one-third to one Gold
will be the only full legal tender, but
the silver coins will be lieFd at their
ice value by making them redeemable
in gold.
This is a very bold experiment for
Japan to make. It is the universal
testimony that the country has been
highly prosperous of late years under
iier existing system. It is believed that
the reason for making the change is the
difficulty experienced in settling foreign
exchange, and particularly in making
foreign loans.
The situation, the social organization
and the commercial customs of Japan
are so different- from ours that her ex
perience with the new system will give
little or no help to the United States in
solving our currency problems, but the
result will le watched with keen inter
est, nevertheless.
