Clause 27 embodied a fundamental uncertainty of concept (it omitted the essential quantity of gold or the mechanism to determine how much gold governed the rent), making it impossible to give the clause meaning; therefore clause 27 is void for uncertainty and must be ignored, leaving the rents for extended periods as specified in clause 28.
