Scope and content
Letter from William (Bill) Conte, in manuscript, referring to his ongoing work with Marion [Archibald] on the coinage of Henry I and his visit to Bari in October 1992, during which he managed to see twenty of the Henry I coins from the San Cataldo hoard in the museum there. He noted that others seen by Evans appear to have gone astray or else became mingled with the French material, which he was unable to see. He concludes by thanking IS for the Shillington list.
