Bloomington (Bloomington, Monroe County, Indiana) Republican Progress, October 5, 1881, p. 3 Mutilated coin is now discounted as follows: Dollars, 65c; half dollars, 35c; quarters, 15c; dimes, 5c. This is the scale fixed 'tis said, by Government, and almost seems like stealing. Because a few rascally fellows have been punching out parts of the coins, innocent holders are required to lose on the coins they have taken at par value.
