"A new variety of farthing of Edward III", by J. J. North, typescript (photocopy), two pages on two folios, undated but datable to no later than 1995 when the published version appeared in the British Numismatic Journal.

"A numismatic research centre: a proposal", typescript, three pages on three folios (recto only), dated June 1963, unattributed, laying out a proposal to establish a Numismatic Research Centre in a university to support the study of numismatics mainly in Great Britain and Ireland, taking account of Continental material only to the extent that it affected British and Irish coinage. Initially, the proposed Centre will focus on the period from the 8th to the 13th century, with the chronological focus to be extended. The Centre will maintain an index on all relevant coins "with full numismatic details and photographs" and comprehensive subject library but no coin collection "except possibly a small one for teaching purposes". The proposal gives the rationale for the establishment of the Centre in a University context, delineates staff and space requirements, provides details about financing and outlines the anticipated costs in terms of initial outlay and annual running costs. On the last page, in the large lower margin, there is a manuscript evidently in the hand of Ian Stewart commenting upon the anticipated costs and querying the production of the index.
