Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Stukeley began collecting Roman and British coins as a young man, and when the Antiquarian Society determined, in the 1720s, to undertake an "exact Metallographica Britannica", Stukeley agreed to collect information on the British coins. He continued to do so throughout his life; he also worked on Roman coins, and his book on Carausius has, among the wild theories, some very perceptive work, much of it being based on accurate drawings still extant and useful. He took the study of British coins much further than any of his predecessors, and projected a work which was to include a history of Cunobelinus; but like so much else of his, this book was never quite finished, although engravings from it were issued and are better than their reputation suggests. Many of his records are invaluable today for checking pedigrees of particular coins. | |||
