The Monied Man's Vade Mecum. Being an Explanation of the Nature, Structure, and Use of a New Portable Steelyard for Weighing Gold Coin. Wherein it is demonstrated that this Instrument, in its own Nature, results from Principles both Philosophical and Mechanical in the most perfect Degree; that therefore its Form is the most Simple and compendious possible; and, lastly, that its Use in producing an Equilibrium is more ready, easy, and expedite than that of any other Balance whatsoever, as is sufficiently evinced in many different Processes relative to its Application to weighting Gold, both Statically and Hydrostatically; so that its Value is instantly seen to a single Penny and its Weight to half a Grain
