New York Court of Appeals February 5, 1871 (Kinne v. . Ford)

Grover, J.

This action was brought to recover the price of $10,000 of gold, which the plaintiffs claimed they had sold and delivered to the defendants. There was no question made, upon the trial, as to the existence of a contract by which the plaintiff agreed to sell and deliver to the defendants this amount of gold at a specified price payable upon delivery to the defendants.
