3 items, paper

Two letters from Pierre Mounier and a copy of one in reply from IS:
(a) typescript, single page, from Mounier to IS, dated from Paris on 19 June 1972, acknowledging receipt of the text on American money, which is perfect in terms of length, and stating that he expects something of equivalent length on India. There is also discussion of the preparation of the illustrations.
(b) typescript, single page, from Mounier to IS, dated from Paris on 26 July 1972, acknowledging receipt of the texts on British Medieval and Modern money. He notes that he has written to Major Pridmore to ask him to write the chapter on India, 10-12 pages, for delivery on 15 November, but he replied saying that he is unable to do so. Mounier therefore asks IS to propose someone else to write the chapter. He then indicates the parameters for the bibliographies.
(c) carbon-copy typescript, single page, from IS to Mounier, dated from London on 22 August 1972, of the cover letter for IS's chapter on British coins, 1500-1815, and advising that the chapter on British coins from 1815 is nearly complete. When he sends it, he will include a list of the coins needed for illustration. IS also notes that he has spoken with Howard Linecar, who has agreed to write two chapters on British Commonwealth and Colonial coins and on Indian coins, and passes on Mr Linecar's address.
