<p>[QUOTE="TheRed, post: 3718204, member: 87080"]I'm not so sure the ES comes from the mint name. While I'm not that well versed on Norman coinage, the quadrilateral on cross fleury used the +moneyer:ON:mint format for the reverse inscription. The only places letters were followed by the : was at the end of the moneyer name and the word ON. I checked my copy of JJ North's book v1 and couldn't find a moneyer that ended in ES. That said, I dont think he has a complete list with all variations in spelling. So the moneyer Godhese could of also been spelled Godhes. Maybe [USER=74712]@FitzNigel[/USER] or [USER=81808]@Aethelred[/USER] might be able to help with further identification.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
