<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JeromeLS, post: 1606813, member: 7867&quot;]You can e-mail the Heberden coin room to book a visit to the study room - <a href="http://www.ashmolean.org/departments/heberdencoinroom/services/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ashmolean.org/departments/heberdencoinroom/services/" rel="nofollow">http://www.ashmolean.org/departments/heberdencoinroom/services/</a>. I&#039;ve never looked at the collection of Anglo-Saxon coins there but it&#039;s the second largest coin collection in the UK so it should be very good. Otherwise, there are probably one or two coins of Cnut on display in the coin gallery of the museum.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, although the light environmental damage that coin has been subjected to would probably be difficult to fake. I personally do not buy expensive (£100+) hammered coins without having actually handled the specimen, but deceptive forgeries are very rare.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
