I have \considered &/ examined the Vouchers of M^r Iames Girards Bill \hereunto annexed/ for engraving of seales \which your Lordsh were pleased to/ referred to the Principal Officers of his Ma^ts Mint by yo^r Lord^ps \the 8{^t}Feb 172 $\frac{1}{2}$ / & \humbly certifie your Lordship that/ I find them right & the work good and the prizes reasonable according to the prizes\being the same/ heretofore allowed for \{before}/ work of the same like sizes & that the seales have \been/ delivered.

{A}ll w^ch is most humbly submitted &c

I.N.

{{illeg}} it likewise appeares to me by proper receipts that the seales in the s^d Bill mentioned have been delivered to the respective Offices or Officers of State they were ordered for, and as they have been weighed in the mint that they are of {illeg} Weight expressed in the s^d. Bill

7. March. 1721.
