Edward R. & I.
%||#HEREAS by virtue of a Proclamation of Her late Majesty Queen
" " Victoria, dated the Third day of February 1898, certain parts of
the Coinage Act, 1870, as amended by section two and the schedule of the
Coinage Act, 1891, were applied, with the modifications specified in the
Proclamation, to the Colony of Lagos:
And whereas by Our Letters Patent under the Great Seal of our United
Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, bearing date the Twenty-eighth
day of February 1906, it was provided, amongst other things, that the
Colony of Lagos should, from the date of the coming into operation of
those Letters Patent, be known as the Colony of Southern Nigeria:
And whereas by virtue of the Coinage Act, 1870, it is lawful for Us,
with the advice of Our Privy Council, by Proclamation to revoke any
Proclamation previously made under that Act:
And whereas We are minded, in exercise of the powers reserved to Us
in the said Letters Patent, to make further provision as to the coinage of
Our said Colony by Order in Council, and it is expedient that, in the event
of such further provision being so made, the said recited Proclamation should
be revoked so far as relates to Our Colony of Southern Nigeria.
NOW, THEREFORE, We, with the advice of Our Privy Council, in
pursuance of the said Act and of all other powers enabling Us in that
behalf, do hereby proclaim, direct, and ordain as follows:—
The said Proclamation of Her late Majesty Queen Victoria, shall, as
from the date of the commencement of any Order in Council making
further provision as to the coinage of Our said Colony of Southern
Nigeria, be revoked so far as relates to that Colony, and accordingly the
said Act shall as from that date cease to apply to and to be in force in
Our said Colony.
Given at Our Court at Buckingham Palace, the Twenty-eighth
day of duly, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred
and six, and in the Sixth Year of Our Reign.
GOD SAVE THE KING
