"Short-cross coinage / Long-cross coinage", manuscript, nine unnumbered pages on nine folios (four pages on the short-cross coinage and five pages on the long-cross coinage), undated and unattributed, with two insertions. The manuscript may be the work of George Tatler (?), based on the calligraphy. If so and if related to Tatler's joint article with Ian Stewart on the Montrave hoard of long-cross sterlings in the BNJ, then the manuscript may be dated earlier, to about 1963; the approximate dating to c.1970 falls roughly at the midpoint in the series of correspondence between Ian Stewart and George Tatler. The first three pages, comprising most of the short-cross section, have cut-out line-drawings of the types affixed to the manuscript to show distinguishing features. The two insertions consist in cuttings from Seaby's Coin & Medal Bulletin (SCMB), loosely inserted – not affixed – into the manuscript at page four where the long-cross section begins, that show "distinguishing features" of the long-cross coinage and variations in the lettering for some characters.
