Sylloge of coins of the British Isles Volume 49.

The Norweb Collection, Tokens of the British Isles, 1575-1750, Part 6, Wiltshire to Yorkshire. Ireland, Wales, Isle of Man, Channel Islands and Scotland. 

This volume completes England apart from London and Middlesex. Wiltshire is fairly comprehensive, Worcestershire reasonably strong, whilst Yorkshire is superb, and probably the best collection ever formed, with many pieces being rare if not unique. For Ireland there are many corrections. The Petty coinage is the subject of an introductory essay. There is a specimen of the only type of the Isle of Man, and of the only confirmed type of Scotland. Two uncertain pieces have been attributed to the island of Sark. The Wales series has just one addition to Boon (1973). The volume includes an Addenda including all the tokens which can now be attributed to counties previously published.

Format: Lxxii; 264 (2) pages including 43 fine plates each with descriptive text; Cloth; Hardback.
