<p>[QUOTE=&quot;robp, post: 4909795, member: 96746&quot;]Rye is only known for Henry I and Stephen. North gave RI or RU without assigning a mint with the moneyer (WU?)LPACHER. This presumably taken from the 1989 discovery of a Henry I type 12. The moneyer was confirmed as AILWACHER from last year&#039;s discovery of a type 7. All four main types of Stephen are known. There are 15 coins of Rye on the EMC database, which presumably this isn&#039;t the complete corpus as there is no type 6 listed, but will be close to.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is so much to be found in the reigns of Henry 1 and to a lesser extent Stephen, with new mints and moneyers for type found every year for Henry I, which is the least documented reign of all. This must be partly due to the quality of most coins, so it would not be unexpected to find examples from old collections incorrectly attributed and reassigned.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
