In this sense, the anonymous author of the Compendious insists that all the money actually current should cease to be so after a certain date, since the 'forcing up' of its nominal value has long since vitiated its functions of measurement; all coinage already minted should then be accepted only in accordance with the amount of metal it is estimated to contain; as for new money, that will have its own weight as its nominal value, so that henceforward only the new and the old money will be current, each in accordance with one and the same value, weight and denomination, so that all money will be re established at its former rate and regain its former goodness.
