IV. Remarks upon the Coins lately discovered in the bed of the River Dove, near Tutbury, Staffordshire. By Edward Hawkins, Esq. F.R.S. and S.A. Keeper of the Antiquities and Medals in the British Museum

Abstract

As much interest has been excited by the discovery of a very large number of Silver Pennies, of the time of our first and second Edwards, in the neighbourhood of Tutbury, in Staffordshire, I shall take the liberty of laying before the Society such of the circumstances as have come to my knowledge; with a few observations which have arisen from an accurate examination of nearly 1500 of these coins, which have been submitted to my inspection by the kindness of Lord Holland, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster.
