Abstract
William Stukeley as a numismatist
Derek Allen
117 - 132
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.
The Wyre Piddle (Worcestershire) 1967 hoard of 15th century silver coins
Marion M Archibald
133 - 162
SO 961473. The hoard of 219 coins (concealed in a pot) comprised 135 groats, thirty-nine half-groats and forty-five pence from Edward I to Edward IV and was buried c 1467. It included seven contemporary forgeries, one sterling of Gauchier de Chatillon and one groat of James I of Scotland. The weights of the coins are given and the currency problems which they raise are discussed. Au/Numis Lit (The pot containing the coins was a small jug, wheel-turned in a hard red fabric with dark green speckled glaze on the shoulder. It seems to have been already broken when used to conceal the hoard. Ed.)
