William Lowndes (1652-1724) was appointed Secretary to the Treasury in 1695 and his commissioned report proposed devaluation. This provoked a debate with the philosopher John Locke who advocated a full recoinage without devaluation. Samuel Pratt, an Anglican cleric, supported Lowndes's case for devaluation.
