Each depositor is issued with one or more receipts. These receipts shall state the name, occupation and domicile of the depositor as well as the nature of the goods deposited and the particulars likely to establish their identity and determine their value.
Fungible goods deposited in general shops and in respect of which a receipt and warrant have been issued may be replaced by goods of the same nature, kind and quality. The possibility of this substitution must be mentioned on both the receipt and the warrant.
The rights and privileges of the bearer of the receipt and the bearer of the warrant are carried over to the substituted goods.
A receipt and warrant may be issued on a batch of fungible goods to be taken from a larger batch.
