Description: | Silver denier coin from Cologne of Otto III, 983-1002 AD, Haevernick 34. Martin Allen of the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, comments that this is an interesting example of the German coins that may have been imported into England in large numbers c.1000, supplying much of the silver for the late Anglo-Saxon coinage. The re-dating of Haevernick's type to the reign of Otto III was undertaken by Peter Ilisch in the Nordisk Numismatik Arsskrift 1983/4, p. 130.
