Summary
The Chapitles Tuchaunz la Gyuerie were first printed in Gross 1887, pp. 219-29. This version is from Rigg 1905, pp. iiv-ixi. They were originally copied from BL Additional Manuscripts, 32,085, folios 120-1 which were purchased at Sotheby's in June 1883. In the manuscript they were wrongly dated to 1294. Gross identified the handwriting on the manuscript as dating from the early part of the fourteenth century. He also noted the abrupt termination of the text and thought that despite the final ‘explicit’ the document was incomplete. In an as yet unpublished paper, Dr Paul Brand claims that the draft statute which foliows the articles differs in date from the articles themselves. The articles seem to belong to the late 1270s.
Touching Jews who falsify and clip coins, and receivers who buy from them silver in plates fused from the clippings.
Touching Christians and Jews who give and receive in exchange good money for clipped money.
