Scope and content
Three letters from Hugh Pagan, all manuscript:
(a) one folio (recto & verso), dated 1 November 1964, thanking IS for the fragment, which makes the 15th obverse die for the moneyer Cenkd [?] in BMC type A. HEP also explains his distinction between the two main "die-schools".
(b) one folio (recto & verso), dated 23 February 1967, providing details of a hoard of silver coins found in County Durham on 30 January 1756, as recorded in two somewhat contrasting accounts in Sykes, Local Records of Northumberland, as IS did not list the hoard in his BNJ publication of 1966.
(c) single page (recto only), dated 18 March 1969, to serve as cover for "the second part of a huge paper on the Rashleigh collection, the first part of which will establish once and for all the composition of the Trewhiddle find".
