<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ian, post: 120135, member: 283&quot;]For me there is nothing `easy&#039; about collecting mediaeval hammered coinages, even with the books.&nbsp; However, it does take the concept of `the fun of finding out&#039; into a new realm. Some of these coins really a\re a voyage of discovery in their own rights. You have to look a lot closer at the detail to attribute them properly than you normally have to do for later coinages. If you don&#039;t like studying minutiae, then hammereds can be a tad `challenging&#039; to say the least.</p><p><br /></p><p>My preference is for french hammered, so from that perspective any Richard The Lionheart coin i&#039;m likely to come across for my own collection will have his name on it and come from Aquitaine or Poitou. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
