Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The one or two specimens of the Alfred half-pence, in the Thomas collection, were, previous to the Cuerdale find, sub ject to doubt and suspicion; but that extraordinary discovery, while it served to dispel many doubts which enshrouded the history of the monetary remains of that period, also enriched the numismatic depositories with many a choice specimen of several most desirable varieties. Among those the half-pennies of Alfred were not the least appreciable.
