  • The Milled Coinage of Elizabeth I
    THE MILLED COINAGE OF ELIZABETH I D. G. BORDEN AND I. D. BROWN Introduction THIS paper describes a detailed study of the coins produced by Eloy Mestrelle's mill at the Tower of London between 1560 and 1571. We have used the information obtained from an examination of the coins to fill out the story of Eloy and his machinery that is given by the surviving documents. There have been a number of previous studies of this coinage. Peter Sanders was one of the first to provide a listing of the silver coins1 and more recently one of us (DGB) has published photographs of the principal types.2 The meagre documentary evidence relating to this coinage has been chronicled by Ruding,3 Symonds,4 Craig,5 Goldman6 and most recently by Challis.7 Hocking8 and Challis have given accounts of what little it known of the machinery used. This study first summarises the history of Mestrelle and his mill as found in the documents and then describes our die analysis based on an examination of enlarged photographs of 637 coins. We combine these two to propose a classification for the coinage in Appendix 2. Mestrelle and the Milled Coinage of Elizabeth I Queen Elizabeth I succeeded her sister Mary I as queen of England and Ireland in November 1558. On 31 December 1558 she signed a commission to Sir Edmund Peckham as high treasurer of the mint to produce gold and silver coins of the same denominations and standards as those of her sister, differing only in having her portrait and titles.9 The coins struck over the next eighteen months mostly never saw circulation because the large amount of base silver coin in circulation drove all the good coin into private savings or, worse, into the melting pot.

  • The Reformation of the Coinage of Madras Early in the Nineteenth
    THE REFORMATION OF THE COINAGE OF MADRAS EARLY IN THE NINETEENTPAUL STEVENH CENTURS Y Introduction BY the end of the eighteenth century the British, in the guise of the East India Company, had extended their power to control large tracts of Southern India, either by direct or indirect rule. They had become the dominant power in the region, with their centre of government at Madras, where they had first established themselves in the middle of the previous century. At that time they had obtained the right to mint their own money, and from then until about 1800 the coins con- sisted, in the main, of crudely struck gold pagodas, silver fanams and copper cash, supplemented during the eighteenth century with silver rupees. However, as the Company extended their territo- ries, the number of different coins that came under their jurisdiction grew, and there were increas- ing problems caused by exchange rates between all of these different coins, to the benefit of the money changers, or shroffs, and to the detriment of the Company and the general populace. The necessity of reforming the coinage became increasingly obvious and eventually resulted in the issue of a new coinage for the Madras Presidency, beginning in 1807. Previous authors have considered this subject,1 but even Pridmore only provided a short review, and, although he did extend the catalogue of the different varieties of coins produced during this re-coinage, many more varieties are now known that he did not include.2 The present paper is an attempt to expand the information available about the events surrounding the production of this coinage, but does not attempt to catalogue all of the different varieties of coins produced.

  • A REVIE\I\T of the COINAGE of CHARLE II
    A REVIE\i\T OF THE COINAGE OF CHARLE II. By LIEUT.-COLONEL H. W. MORRIESON, F.s.A. PART I.--THE HAMMERED COINAGE . HARLES II ascended the throne on Maj 29th, I660, although his regnal years are reckoned from the death of • his father on January 30th, r648-9. On June 27th, r660, an' order was issued for the preparation of dies, puncheons, etc., for the making of gold and" silver coins, and on July 20th an indenture was entered into with Sir Ralph Freeman, Master of the Mint, which provided for the coinage of the same pieces and of the same value as those which had been coined in the time of his father. 1 The mint authorities were slow in getting to work, and on August roth an order was sent to the vVardens of the Mint directing the engraver, Thomas Simon, to prepare the dies. The King was in a hurry to get the money bearing his effigy issued, and reminders were sent to the Wardens on August r8th and September 2rst directing them to hasten the issue. This must have taken place before the end of the year, because the mint returns between July 20th and December 31st, r660,2 showed that 543 lbs. of silver, £r683 6s. in value, had been coined. These coins were considered by many to be amongst the finest of the English series. They fittingly represent the swan song of the Hammered Coinage, as the hammer was finally superseded by the mill and screw a short two years later. The denominations coined were the unite of twenty shillings, the double crown of ten shillings, and the crown of five shillings, in gold; and the half-crown, shilling, sixpence, half-groat, penny, 1 Ruding, II, p" 2.

  • The Newsletter
    LONDON NUMISMATIC CLUB - THE NEWSLETTER - A CHRONOLOGICAL TABLE OF CONTENTS with Author and Subject Indexes Volume VI, Number 1 - Volume VIII, Number 1 January 1974 - November 1997 Compiled by Harrington E. Manville Corresponding Member 29 INTRODUCTION The early years of the London Numismatic Club were succinctly reviewed by President Peter Clayton in the 40th anniversary issue (November 1987): "The Club held its inaugural meeting at the St Bride's Institute, off Fleet Street, on 4th November 1947... The first general meeting was held on 2nd December 1947 with 35 people present, from whom were elected the Officers and Committee and the Rules drawn up... The first ordinary business meeting took place on 9th January 1948 when several short talks were given and administrative details settled. The initial list of members numbered 80, and they were all deemed to be Founder Members, as such they were excused the entrance fee. The St Bride's Institute was to be the home of the Club for many years to come... "The first Newsletter appeared in April 1948 and had three issues in that year. Our early Newsletters were all typed and then duplicated with only the Club's logo being specially printed on the first page... The Club's first dinner was held on 1st March 1949 and its first auction on 5th March that year. October 1949 saw the provision of a library 'chest' (a small cupboard) made by one of the members to house the growing library.
