Royal Coin Cabinet, Stockholm. Part V
Edward the Confessor's coinage, like that of the kings before him, was renewed at intervals of two or three years, on each occasion by a distinctive new design. Ten such types succeeded one another during his reign. They were struck at more than 50 mint-places throughout England. Although the outflows of English money to Scandinavia were beginning to dwindle (and there are very few coins of Harold II), the Stockholm coin cabinet has some 1,277 sp…
Scottish Coins in the National Museums of Scotland, Edinburgh. Part 1
Sylloge of Coins of the British Isles. Vol. LII
The university coin collection at Uppsala, much of which was acquired before 1834, achieved substantially its present scope by 1917. In this first volume of a catalogue (others are planned) there are recorded 642 Anglo-Saxon coins, nearly all of the late tenth or eleventh century, 64 Scandinavian imitations of the same period, 20 later English, and a dozen Hiberno-Norse coins. All these are illustrated on 37 plates from photographs of outstanding…
Anglo-Saxon and Earlier Settlement near Drayton Road, Sutton Courtenay, Berkshire
Since E. T. Leeds' excavations of the Anglo-Saxon settlement at Sutton Courtenay in the 1920s and 1930s, aerial photographs revealing large timber buildings, as well as finds of metalwork and coins have suggested that the settlement was more extensive and of higher status than Leeds had imagined. This report reviews this evidence and describes the results of fieldwalking, geophysical survey and small-scale excavation which have provided further d…

Sutton Hoo published
The discovery of the Sutton Hoo ship-burial in the summer of 1939 opened a window on the early Anglo-Saxon world through which we have all since been looking. But the view has inevitably been blurred until now, lacking the precise definition which only the publication of the definitive study could provide. The first of the four volumes of this most eagerly awaited and often anticipated account has now appeared: it is an offering worthy of its sub…

The Prosperity of North-Western Europe in the Eighth and Ninth Centuries
t j-SHE statistics that have presented are rough and ready, but they are sufficient to show that the Anglo-Saxon coinage is to be measured in fives 1 and tens of millions, at a time when the population was less than one million. The implications for economic history, although in detail they are subject to much uncertainty, are in broad terms clear: long before the Conquest, the monetary sector of the economy was of an extent that the ordinary his…

Bronze Coinage and City Life in Central Greece circa A.D. 1000
In the decades around the millennium the issues of bronze coinage of the Byzantine Empire, except at Cherson, were exclusively ‘Rex Regnantium’ folles. In accordance with the theocratic political philosophy of the time, the portrait they bore was that not of the emperor but of Christ, ‘the King of those who Rule’. The inscriptions were analogous: Ἐμμανουήλ and Ἰησοῦς Χριστὸς Βασιλεὺς τῶν Βασιλευόντων. Some issues were similar in size and fabric t…
Frankish Petty Currency from the Areopagus at Athens
How Large was the Anglo-Saxon Currency
A ny attempt to assess, for the purposes of economic history, the English coinage of the eighth to eleventh centuries quickly runs into the difficulty of knowing how large a volume of currency was in use. Was the phase ofprosperity and growth in the time of Offa followed by a set-back under Ecgbeorht? Under Aethelred I of Wessex, was most of the coinage struck in the name of Burgred, and if so, why? Was the institution of mints by Edward the Elde…
The Aegean coastlands under threat
The new Rome inherited from the old a strategic situation in the Mediterranean world that was essentially similar at the beginning of the seventh century to what it had been in the first. Persia, vetus hostis , was still a threat in the east, while in the north there was the less organized but no less persistent threat of migratory peoples pressing across the Danube. By the middle of the seventh century the Byzantine supremacy in the east Mediter…

The Currency of deniers tournois in Frankish Greece
The base silver deniers of the type from Tours which in the thirteenth century were the common currency of large parts of France served as the model for the later coinage of Frankish Greece. From the mid-thirteenth century onwards, for more than a hundred years, deniers tournois were the standard coin of Attica, Bœotia, the Peloponnese, and some of the Aegean islands. They were struck in very large numbers by the princes of Achaia and the dukes o…
Byzantine Scyphate Bronze coinage in Greece
The Byzantine coinage in the twelfth century was of three kinds. There were gold nomismata , with a purchasing power which must have been a good deal greater than that of a present-day five-pound note, and also nomismata of ‘pale gold’—gold alloyed with silver—of lower value; at the other extreme there were bronze coins, smaller than a modern farthing, which were the coinage of the market-place; intermediate, but still of low value, there were co…
