Scope and content
Letter from Peter Woodhead, in manuscript, one folio (recto & verso), dated 30 March 1988, thanking IS for the offprints and sending him his master set of photos of the coins from the Aberdour hoard, which are no longer associated with the letter; PW asked for the return of the photos as it is a unique photographic record of the hoard. He says that he sent JELM [i.e. Joan Murray?] a copy of her letter, which he agrees is "a mine of information". In closing, he refers to a small hoard found in Northamptonshire a couple of years earlier, which he has acquired. It contained some Continental billon and one John Balliol sterling. It was closed in the late 1340s.
