Ringing the changes, a trick practised by a criminal, by which, on receiving a good piece of money in payment of an article, he pretends it is not good, and, changing it, returns to the buyer a counterfeit one, as in Frank;s case, 2 Leach, 64:--A man having bargained with the prisoner, who was selling fruit about the street, to have five apricots for sixpence, gave him a good shilling to change. The prisoner put the shilling into his mouth, as if to test it by biting, and returning a shilling, said it was a bad one. The buyer gave him a second, which he treated like the first, and returned with the same words, and so with a third shilling. The shillings he returned being bad, this was an uttering of false money, 1 Russ.

Truck Acts (1831 to 1896)

Truck Acts (1831 to 1896) (English) (1 & 2 Wm. 4, c. 37; 50 & 51 Vict. c. 46, and 59 & 60 Vict. c. 43), the Truck Act, 1831, the Truck Amendment Act, 1887, and the Truck Act, 1896, passed to prevent the payment of wages in goods instead of in money. The plan had been for masters to establish warehouses or shops, and the workmen in their employ have either had their wages accounted for to them by supplies of goods from such depots, without receiving any money, or they have had the money given to them with an express understanding that they were to resort to the warehouses or shops of their masters for the articles of which they stood in need. This system is made illegal by the Truck Acts. A deduction from wages in respect of damages awarded to an employer in an action is a violation of these Acts, Williams v. North's Navigation Collieries, 1906 AC 136....
