Scope and content
One memorandum and one letter from Philip Grierson:
(a) memorandum, without cover letter, as photocopy of typescript, subscribed "PG", dated 12 May 1966, entitled "Mint locations" and outlining some of the principal determinants of mint location, evidently in the context of the early Middle Ages and especially Anglo-Saxon coinage.
(b) letter, in typescript, dated 3 October 1966, dealing mainly with "Potter's comments on the sovereigns", to which PG responds on three points, namely "the order of the marks", "the lettering and stops associated with the marks", and the lettering of the cross fitchy sovereign.
