Scope and content
Three letters from Robin Eaglen, in manuscript, the first two with attachments. In the first, dated 2 September 1991 (a), RE writes about his work on classifying coins of Henry III, type VIIIb, from the Bury St Edmunds mint in the Naxos hoard; the attachment, in manuscript, lists examples of type VIIIb1, VIIIb2 and VIIIb3 coins from the hoard mainly in the collections of RE, Jeffrey North and Ian Stewart. In the second letter, dated 5 December 1991 (b), RE notes that he is uncertain about his association of one of the type VIIIb1 coins with the IS collection, as his card file for the coin carries the note "BHIH Stewart coll?"; a photocopy of the card, with poor images of the coin, is attached. The third letter, dated 10 December 1991 (c), originally provided cover for an enclosure, no longer attached, on which RE solicits comments or criticisms.
