A Canadian bank recently esti- mated that U.S. silver makes up 40 per cent of all silver in Can- ada. However, some Canadian resi- dents say they have already noticed a marked decrease in the number of U.S. coins in circula- tion, since the enforcement of ex- change rates. A bank official today pointed out that no stores have to accept U.S. coins. "They are not legal tender". However, a local mer- chant remarked he thought it was good psychology to take the coins, even if it is necessary to charge exchange. "We don't like to have our currency turned down in the U.S. I don't think would be a good policy to refuse U.S, currency here," he said.
