United  States  Consulate,
Montevideo,  September  1,  1886.
The  difference  between  the  United  States  currency  and  that  of  Uruguay  is  so  small
that  I  have  not  attempted  to  reduce  the  valuation  to  the  former,  the  value  of  the
nominal  current  dollar  of  Uruguay  being  103.52  cents,  estimated  in  American  gold

United  States  Consul.
