Remarks on some conjectures, relative to an antient piece of money endeavouring to prove it a coin of Richard, the First King of England of that name. Shewing the improbability of the notion therein advanced; that the arguments produced in support of it are inconclusive, or irrelative to the point in question. In which will be particularly and largely consider'd the standard and purity of our most antient English coins, the state of the mints, and the beginning or sterling, from the public records. To which will be added, an epistorlary dissertion on some supposed saxon gold coins read before the society of antiquaries: By Geo. North, A.M. Fellow of the society of antiquaries, London.

An assemblage of coins, fabricated by authority of the Archbishops of Canterbury. All the Metropolitical Coins, whether already published, or latent in private Cabinets, so far at least as the Author's Correspondence extends, are here engraved in one View, and illustrated with a proper Commentary. An Essay is annexed, in which some Account is given of the Origine, the variable Fate and Fortune, and the final Determination of these inferior and subordinate Mints; and something concerning the Nature and particular Circumstances of them, with other incidental Matters relative to the Subject, is occasionally noticed; with Intention of throwing some Light on a Branch of the Science of Medals both curious and copious, though but imperfectly considered by our English Medalists. To the whole are subjoined, two dissertations on similar subjects, I. On a fine Coin of Aelfred the Great, with his Head. II. On the famous Unic of the late Mr. Thoresby, supposed to be a Coin of St. Edwin, but shewn to be a Penny of Edward the Confessor; wherein a Plan is laid down for re-engraving Sir Andrew Fountaine's Tables of the Saxon Coins. By Samuel Pegge, M.A.
