Yeah. Misuse of "it's" instead of "its" could be either historical artifact meaning "itself" or it could be an indicator of a non English speaker composing this document.
I am investigating the etymology to see if this might be proper historical use.
Some weird 18th century language usage here. "except" may have a commerce meaning along the lines of "out from" as a kinda opposite direction of incept "in to".

You are right about the historical use of the apostrophe friend.
It also has "excepts and/or exchanges in United States Currency".
Is the word excepts supposed to be accepts? Or is excepts some legalese I am unaware of?
