The calendar year output of gold was £414,918 which was the third highest of the reign. Sir Isaac Newton was the Master Worker of the Mint at this time and later went on to officially call the gold coinage the "guinea" in a report made in the Mint papers of 1717. The gold coins had been called Guineas colloquially since the time that gold dust and metal began to be imported from the African country of Guinea, during the reign of Charles II.
