A group of four silver coins. All are examples of the late medieval English silver penny and will be of the sterling standard, 92.5% fine metal. The two older coins are worn and possibly clipped, which makes it likely that they were in circulation alongside the two later coins, both from the last decade or so of Henry VI's reign (1422-60), a period when the official weight of the penny was 15 grains (0.9g). That the later coins are all from the York mint is typical of the fifteenth century. The group was probably deposited roughly in the period c. 1455 to 1470, when a new weight stand…

Record ID: DOR-11C929
Object type: COIN HOARD
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Dorset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Date of discovery: November 2013 and October 2014
Circumstances of discovery: The coins were found separated by a distance of 3 meters, at a depth of 6 inches below the surface of a previously ploughed field. Early and later medieval pottery has been found in the same general area. The identical typology and condition of the coins suggests that they were lost or deposited together at the same time, and the action of ploughing may have contributed to their apparent separation in the ground.
Description: The finds consist of two silver coins, both dating from the second half of t…

Description:A group of three coins. Two Long Cross pennies and one fragment of a Short Cross penny. It is probable that the Short Cross fragment was not part of the group when lost.
Date:Medieval - 13th century, before 1279
Discussion:The two Long Cross pennies in the name of Henry III are more than 300 years old and composed of more than 10% precious metal (in fact over 90% fine metal) could have been deposited together and thus have the potential to be considered Treasure under the terms of the Treasure Act 1996. However, they might equally be separately lost coins, since the prese…

REPORT TO HM CORONER
2011 T184 Winterborne Kingston, Dorset
I have examined a group of 83 items reported found at Winterborne Kingston, Dorset. The majority are official silver coins of the kings of England Edward I, Edward II and Edward III, along with two coins of King David II of Scots. In addition there is a single silver coin of King Henry IV, struck after the introduction of a new weight standard for the coinage in 1412 All these coins would have been struck to the current sterling standard, thus over 90% fine metal. With the coins was a lead bulla, or seal, of Pope Bo…

These are a group of 4 silver pennies of the Short Cross coinage, a type used for about 80 years though 4 reigns. Their details allow them to be dated more precisely, as set out below. As official English pennies they will have a silver standard of over 90% fine metal. They would have been in currency together in the years around 1210 and it is likely that they represent a single deposit. In the 13th century cut halfs and quarters of Short Cross pennies usually outnumber full pennies in areas of individual coin losses, and a collection of full pennies alone is more likely to represent…

A group of 12 coins reported found near Evershot, Dorset. All are of silver of the sterling standard, c. 92.5% fine metal, a standard followed in both Scotland and England at this time. The coins appear to represent the currency of England in the later 1350s and 1360s, when the issues of Edward III's Fourth Coinage had come to dominate over the older sterlings of Edward I and II, although these still represented a large proportion of the penny denomination in use. Most of the coins are the higher silver denominations of groat (fourpence) and half-groat (twopence). Scottish coins of Da…
