Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Fun magazine deprecates the new Jubilee issue of British coins, that had been issued on 20 June 1887. The ghostly coins' lines are an allusion to the speech of the ghost of Hamlet's father at Hamlet I.v.15–19

"I am thy father’s spirit;
Doom’d for a certain term to walk the night,
And for the day confin’d to fast in fires,
Till the foul crimes done in my days of nature

Are burnt and purg’d away."
