As there have been several Jews who nevertheless have interpreted the privilege to their advantage, but contrary to the intentions of His Majesty, any contraventions shall incur a fine of fifty ducats, to be issued by the Fiscal Office.

4. Text of Act	Although we have, through numerous beneficial edicts and regulations, continued to prohibit the ‘Kippen und Wippen’ [altering] of coins, which has become so widespread and is harmful to the economy,… We have nevertheless once again noticed with great dismay how the aforementioned ‘Kippen und Wippen’ has become so prevalent for some time now that the weight not only of the Saxon and other low-value reduced money, but also of the old and new types of coins minted under our high-ranking stamp, differs so greatly that almost none of the money bags that come into our treasury have the proper coin weight … Since we do not wish to tolerate this harmful and illegal practice any longer, which is detrimental to both Our treasury and Our subjects, we hereby issue the following decree: If a Jew is caught or convicted of ‘Kippen und Wippen,’ not only shall they be subject to heavy fines, lose their privilege to issue coins, but they shall also be punished by corporal punishment and hard labor. If a Christian is found, however, he will be fined ten times the amount [of altered coins] found on him and will also be sentenced to imprisonment.
