| | Since debasements are simply an opportunity to change heavy coins into light coins, and at a cost, they provide no additional incentive to bring metal to the mint. | | | 12 In France, the debasement of 1303 was followed by a reinforcement in the years from 1305 to 1306 and by another debasement in 1311. | | | We assume that the ecu quoted is the most recently minted coin, and its fineness is known, so that we scale the price of the ecu by its current fineness. |

| | i) Debasement simply defined means to reduce the precious metal content of the coin; either by weight (smaller coin) or by fineness (by adding more copper in the alloy); or by raising the face value, the money-of-account or official value of the coin. | | | In modern times, the French achieved something similar by knocking two zeros off the old franc, so ravaged by excessive money issues and inflation, to produce a 'new franc'. | | | b) Variable-value gold coin systems: that is, systems based on currently circulating gold coins that were subject to periodic debasement (in both fineness and weight). |

| | FRB Minneapolis Research Archive - The Debasement Puzzle: An Essay on Medieval Monetary History |
| | ABSTRACT: This study establishes several facts about medieval monetary debasements: they were followed by unusually large minting volumes and by increased seigniorage; old and new coins circulated concurrently; and, at least some of the time, coins were valued by weight. | | | These facts constitute a puzzle because debasements provide no additional inducements to bring coins to the mint. | | | On theoretical and empirical grounds, the authors reject explanations based on by-tale circulation, nominal contracts, and sluggish price adjustment. |
