Scope and content
Card and letter from Simon Keynes, both in manuscript. In the card, dated 3 March 1986 (a), SK thanks IS for sending his paper on moneyers [for the journal Anglo-Saxon England], letting him know that it will be a fortnight before he is able to devote any attention to it. In the letter, dated 23 March 1986 (b), SK comments upon the paper, first addressing a question that IS posed about the difference between diplomas, charters and writs, then turning to specific points in the paper on specific moneyers. In the last paragraph, SK mentions an enclosure, no longer attached, of extracts from Michael Lapidge's forthcoming edition of Lantfred's Translatio et Miracula S Swithuni (early 970s).
