Item description from seller

The indenture, dated 2 March 1469, outlines the regulations governing the minting of coinage in the Tower of London. It details the weights and standards of coins, including the groat, which was reduced from 60 grains to 48 grains in Edward IV's reign. The document also specifies the responsibilities of the Master of the Mint, ensuring the quality and consistency of the currency. The article provides insights into medieval monetary policy, discussing the engraving of dies, the marks used on coins, and the economic implications of these regulations. It also highlights the political significance of Lord Hastings, a loyal supporter of the House of York, who was later executed by Richard 3rd. 15 pages. An authentic standalone article, extracted from a larger volume. Not a reprint or reproduction, but an original work in its own right. Preserved in a modern card cover, prepared for practicality - an unassuming but serviceable presentation that favours function over finery. Size: 25 x 30 cms. Category: Archaeologia; Cosmo Books : 29 years on ABE, 47 years taking care of customers. A bookseller you can rely on. Softcover (Booklet - Unbound Pages).…
