A Treasure Report on 6 Medieval coins by Barrie Cook, curator of Medieval Coinage at the British Museum, follows: I have examined six coins reported found at Preston Capes, Northamptonshire. All are silver, with four being official issues of King Edward I, which will have a silver fineness of a little over 90%. The other two are imitations of the English penny issued by continental rulers in their own names. Analysis has shown that sterlings of the count of Flanders of this type range from 85 to 95% silver and sterlings of William, bishop of Cambrai range from 83 to 94% silver. Deta…

All of the five coins are short cross pennies of John or Henry III. None show a great deal of wear, their indifferent condition being due to poor striking. Since class 7b begins in 1222 and closes in 1236 we may assume a date of loss or deposition sometime in the 1220s or 1230s. Given that only one example of the common class 7 series is present (although the sample is admittedly small) the date is probably earlier in this range rather than later. Catalogue: Uncertain Canterbury moneyer, class 5b-6 Davi of York, class 5b2 Ilger of London, class 5c Rauf of London, class 6c2 Iun of Ca…

Obv. description: Crowned bust facing, sceptre in right hand Obv. inscription: HENRIC[VS RE]X The inscription indicates the larger coin is a cut halfpenny of the Short Cross coinage issued under Henry II, Richard, John and Henry III. The obverse is too worn to determine which ruler it is. As silver coins of the medieval kings of England, these two coins will be of over 90% fine metal. The pair of interlinked coins fulfil the Treasure Ac…

Myddle, Shropshire, coin find 2005 T419 I have examined 5 coins reported found at Myddle on 4 September 2005, during a metal detecting rally. These coins are all gold doblas of Peter or Pedro I, King of Castile ('Pedro the Cruel'), who reigned 1350-69. All the coins were struck at the Seville mint, the main mint of Castile. They are of good weight and are in generally good condition, with slight indication of wear and a frayed edge on one which was probably there from its manufacture, rather than being the result of damage, since its weight is consistent with the others. Gold coin…

60 Medieval silver voided long cross pennies [inc halves & quarters] were discovered. Of these coins, 55 are official English silver coins of King Henry III, from the Long Cross coinage (issued 1247-1279). They include 36 full pennies, 18 cut halfpennies and 1 cut farthing. The penny was the only coin produced by the English mints at this time, with small denominations (halfpennies and farthings) produced by physically cutting the penny into halves and quarters. Typically, penny hoards of the period tend to include some cut halfpennies among the full coins, although cut farthings a…

A further batch of coins has been recovered from the site of the 2007 Baschurch hoard (2007 T545), to join the four additional batches reported on in 2010. The new material is listed below. All the identifiable items are silver pennies of the Long Coinage of King Henry III, of fragments thereof. Overall, they match perfectly with the range of material in the original find, with its unusual composition of Shrewsbury mint issues. One coin (no. 9) looks a little different to the others and may have undergone cleaning. If it is accepted that the new finds form part of an original single…

A hoard of 14 Henry II 'Tealby' pennies. All of the coins are of the cross and crosslets (Tealby) type of Henry II (1158-1180). Although coins of this type are relatively common compared to other twelfth century issues, they are still rare enough that there is no reason to doubt that a group of fourteen all found close together constitute a single hoard, rather than a series of independent random losses, especially as there is no other evidence (to the best of my knowledge ) to indicate the sort of extensive use in the late 12th century that might suggest multiple losses. As is typica…

A 'lump' of fused silver pennies, dating to the decades around 1300, but otherwise are not identifiable. The group weighs 8.43g, so there may be 6 or 8 coins there, although most are damaged. As English silver coins they will be made to the established sterling standard, slightly over 90% fine metal. In principle, therefore, the group appears to fulfil the criteria of Treasure, according to the terms of the Act. Dr Barrie Cook

This report concerns two silver pennies of Henry I, which were discovered during the excavation of a Victorian spoilheap. The spoilheap contained a mixture of material from the Paleolithic period down to the nineteenth century. With a random assortment of finds of this sort, there is no reason to assume that any other finds from the excavation are associated with the coins, and therefore Treasure by association, although a third coin of Henry I is known to have been found on this site in 1876, which probably was associated with the two coins discussed here. Both the coins are silver pe…

Hoard of probably six or seven silver hammered coins that are fused together to form a clump. Some are in a poor condition having most likely been melted. As the coins are clumped together this suggests that they may have been in a purse or container which held them tightly together. Where the surface of the coins can be seen some are quite worn. The coins seem to have a thickness of c.0.23mm and diameter ranging from possibly 15.47mm (the smallest and most deformed coin) to c.22.30mm which seems to be the approximate size of most of the rest of the hoard. The coin hoard has been give…
