And because of th.* familiarity and the c< nvanience of the Spanish dollar and its fractions. w?e came to use a dollar currency instead of pounds and pence. A real,- or "bit had th* face valpe of one. eighth of a dollar, nr 12^ cents; two reals, or "two bits" onefourth of a doltar, or 25 c**nt i. loexntion of HorM’Mioes.
