Short description:
This first part of the Lord Stewartby collection contains over 1450 coins of all metals and denominations issued between 1488 and 1625. It is a period of Scottish history that was politically complex and economically challenging but also vibrant with change and ideas.
Long description:
This latest volume from the Sylloge of Coins of the British Isles publishes the first portion of the Lord Stewartby Collection, the most important assemblage of Scottish coins ever put together by a private individual. The collection has a depth and range across all metals and denominations, which is exceptional and makes it an important academic resource for researchers, whether numismatists or historians, or as a reference point for collectors.
