England’s Striking History

Description

A Few Words On Mint MarksWhen you take a gander at the lettering on numerous later archaic coins you will recognize a few denotes that plainly don’t frame part of the legend; even some that are not letters by any stretch of the imagination. Most obvi-ous are the crosses that regularly happen toward the start of a legend and/or at the beginnings of words. Similarly normal in some reigns are punctuation marks showing letters discarded or omitted to abbreviate the total legend.
