Assay offices

In the United States are government establishments where the precious metals are officially tested to determine their purity, and where, also, individuals may deposit gold and silver bullion and receive therefor its market value, less the charge of assaying. In 1901 these offices were located in New York City; Boise City, Idaho; Helena, Mont.; Denver, Col.; Seattle, Wash.; San Francisco, Cal.; Charlotte, N. C.; and St. Louis, Mo. See coinage.
