A comprehensive volume for the collector of Greek Coins!!
This book is intended as a correlated account of hoard material which includes the identification and scientific analysis of British coin hoards.
Thompson chose the time range, A.D. 600-1500 because it represents the transition between medieval and Renaissance artistic development of coins, combined with the blossoming of British maritime and commercial enterprise characteristic of the 16th century.
The hoards are listed in alphabetical order, most of which include mint information, moneyers, initial-marks and mint marks.
