Irish Hammered Pennies of Edward IV and Richard III, Second Edition (Paperback)

New SECOND EDITION with 27 varieties not in SCBC, including six design types and thirteen mint issues not in the first edition of this book, plus updated population indicators. This is an illustrated guide to the known Irish hammered pennies minted under the Yorkist kings Edward IV and Richard III. It includes a quick index to coin markings, a detailed chronology, and over 100 illustrations, including large format photographs of numerous coin specimens. Jasper Burns is the author of many articles about ancient coins as well as more than thirty books, including Coin Stories (Pietas), Great Women of Imperial Rome (Routledge), Vipsania: A Roman Odyssey (Pietas), and Fossil Collecting in the Mid-Atlantic States (Johns Hopkins University Press). "I consider that you have individually tackled a task that most collectors of Irish coins have avoided or been unable to tackle. And the key to this was your identifying that many of these coins were languishing misidentified as English coins, and this combined with the development of the internet coin market ... has meant that you have been able to assemble a lot of examples and have been able to start identifying them by the portraits and styles so that pieces with virtually no legends can now be properly identified as Irish." - John Stafford-Langan
