Description: | Silver penny from Stephen's reign. A new type not listed in any work hitherto published. 1135-54. Obverse [...]IL[...], bust right with cross-headed sceptre before, reverse [...]A:V:L[...], short cross pattee, cross pommee (4 pellet cluster) in each angle, central lozenge defined by 4 light lines. Martin Allen comments:I have recorded this as EMC 2012.0298. This is a new type from the reign of Stephen, apparently in the name of William, which Andy Woods and I are going to write up for BNJ, after the discovery of two other coins of the type in an Irish hoard of the 1170s, and from Blyth in Nottinghamshire (EMC 2012.0105). Presumably it is from the Midlands.
