English Medieval Coin Hoards 2:
British Museum Press (Verlag)
978-0-86159-214-2 (ISBN)
This volume presents details, images and discussion of the contents of twenty English coin hoards, ranging in date from the 730s to the 1090s. Found between the 1960s and 1990s, all were studied by the late Marion Archibald at the British Museum but have never been published in full before now. Each hoard is the subject of its own chapter, with discussion of the discovery, and of the historical context in which the hoard was buried, before a catalogue of the relevant coins. The volume also contains an introductory chapter, providing an overview of developments in the use of coinage in England in the seventh to eleventh centuries, as well as a discussion of hoarding in this period. This provides context for the more detailed presentation of the individual hoards in this volume, but also draws on other major hoards of the period, both published and unpublished.
Marion Archibald† was Assistant Keeper at the British Museum from 1963 to 1997. She specialised particularly in Anglo-Saxon and Norman coinage. Marion was awarded medals by both the Royal Numismatic Society and the British Numismatic Society. Gareth Williams is a curator at the British Museum with responsibility for early medieval coins and Viking antiquities. His research focuses on the Anglo-Saxon and Viking periods, and spans archaeology, history and numismatics.
