Hi,
Have been adding a decent amount to my galleries over the past few years. The theme is medieval coins of the British Isles, with a touch of Scandinavian and French thrown in. Still working on photography technique and some of the descriptions. It remains a work in progress.

Great collection. I am very impressed, especially with your Scottish coins ;) .

Great gallery! Love all the high grade and the portrait coins. Wessex is especially well represented.
My medieval collection is actually quite similar, but without the Irish/Scottish element, and adding in crusaders. My British selection ends in the Tudors. I stick to the hammered coins, whereas the Stuarts start in with the presses.
And speaking about a work in progress, my medieval collection isn’t yet online. ::)
Just moved to South Carolina and I’m up to my neck in boxes. I will have to reshoot the coins and upload (one of my many 2020 resolutions).

It is a very impressive gallery. I always enjoy looking at the coins you post. Stkp

I am updating my images for many of the coins. My pictures are still suboptimal but I think they have improved over the last few years. In particular, I think the designs on the early Anglo-Saxon sceattas are better appreciated with the new images. Still have a bunch to do though, but comments are always welcome.

Great group of coins, +++ +++ +++

I wish I had the energy to go through my old and sometimes new images and improve them with new ones. Stkp

Very nice additions (or replacements, I cannot always tell). Photos are fantastic.
My 2021 FAC resolution is to upload my Medieval Coin collection. Of course, I'll have to catalog and photograph anew...
Meanwhile I take pleasure from watching this space :-).

As someone who has a gallery of British coins here myself, I must say you have some very nice coins.

You have some stunningly beautiful coins. Thank you for sharing those. The only medieval coins I want to collect are Crusaders, but yours sure makes me want to expand on that interest. Very nice.

Hi,
Have started the long-needed process of updating photographs. Hopefully for the last time.

Over the last year have been able to add a few significant coins, including some gold thrymsas (early Anglo-Saxon versions of tremisses). As well as some sceattas (English deniers), Saxon pennies, medieval Irish coins, and a few others.

You have a wonderful collection and your gallery is one that I visit regularly. I have your gallery URLs on "speed-dial" ;D, but you should add a link to your profile to make it easier for other FORVM members to visit them.

Just like *Alex, I love perusing your galleries from time to time.
I am curious where you found your Erik VII ("the Pirate King") of Pommerania sterling. Was it in an auction?

Thank you! I have become more interested in Scandinavian medieval coins recently, and have added a few. Not done with British but find it hard to add to the collection lately.
The Erik of Pomerania sterling was from an Estonian seller on eBay actually.
I believe Agora auctions also had one or two in their most recent auction.

Fantastic collection. Thanks for sharing it with us.
