Item 1973/1 - Letter from Edgar Winstanley

1 item, paper

Letter from Edgar Winstanley, in manuscript, one folio (recto & verso), dated 29 September 1973, with one attachment; in the letter, EJW thanks IS for his letter and the enclosed photographs of a York penny of Henry VII, stating that the coin appears to fall between [class] IIb and IIc. He says that the lettering is difficult to judge but is probably the D variety. He describes the York pennies of Henry VII as the least rare. He refers to an enclosure consisting in some letters from a BNS member who was interested in York pennies of Henry VII, but the letters are no longer associated with EJW's correspondence. He says that he doesn't need the letters back, expressing regret that they do not carry the year in which they were written. The attachment consists in an index card onto which there are photographs of the Henry VII penny of York affixed, with a brief description of the coin.
