THRYMSAS, SCEATTAS AND STYCAS OF NORTHUMBRIA  

An Inventory of Finds recorded to 1997.

This is a much-extended edition of the short paper included in Anglo-Saxon Monetary History (M. Blackburn, ed.; Leicester, 1986). The register now comprises no fewer than 298 substantive entries, relating to hoards, excavation-finds and specimens without site-context, recovered both within the two provinces of Northumbria and beyond. There are 18 distribution-maps; ninety-four coins are illustrated alongside the relevant text. One short appendix reviews the incidence of connected discoveries of Carolingian coins; another surveys the current evidence of the so-called styca-weights. The bibliography is extensive.  

Format: A4; 92 pages; Card covers.
