Details of Hines' and Appleby's expenses (including the lease of a water mill, taken out on Newton's advice), the deficiencies of the copper offered by other suppliers, the quantity of copper coined to date and the quantity remaining on Hines' and Appleby's hands since the cessation of the coinage [around the beginning of 1719].
