* Coins of Scotland, Ireland and the Islands (Jersey, Guernsey, Man & Lundy) including Anglo-Gallic Coins 2026, 5th edition
The historic reference work for coins from Scotland, Ireland and the Islands of Jersey, Guernsey, Man and Lundy, as well as those from the Anglo-Gallic series is the only catalogue featuring all major coin types from the Hiberno-Scandinavian periods in Ireland and the Isle of Man, through to the final Anglo-Gallic coins seen under Henry VI, the Scottish "Pretenders" James VIII and Charles III, as well as the Irish Euro coinage seen from 2002 onwards, arranged in chronological order within the respective realms and divided, within each reign, into metals, coinages, denominations and varieties.
The catalogue includes useful information explaining numismatic terms and the process of valuing coins, as well as providing independently-agreed up-to-date values for each and every coin. Also seen are included a wealth of further reading in bibliographies for the ardent intellectual collector!
Key transitions to note in the Scottish series are the succession of James VI of Scotland to the throne of England as James I, as well as the final Act of Union between England and Scotland in 1707 under Queen Anne. The Irish series displays an early Hiberno-Scandinavian influence, and progresses through the Anglo-Irish coinage under King John through medieval history and the Tudors, the Wars of the Three Kingdoms and Confederate Catholic issues, Civil War coinage (including gunmoney coins), Bank of Ireland pieces, through to those produced under the Irish Free State and the Euros seen from 2002 onwards. The coinage of the Islands largely revolves around family names; namely the Stanleys, Murrays, and Harmans, and the Anglo-Gallic series covers the period of English influence in Normandy, Aquitaine, Poitou, Ponthieu and other parts of France between 1154-1453 under the English kings and princes of the time, including the French regal coins produced under Henry V and VI.
Coins have been used by states or monarchs for millennia to communicate with their peoples; Coins of Scotland, Ireland and the Islands including Anglo-Gallic Coins as such is not only a collectors reference book, but provides an insight into our history itself, shedding light upon our shared culture, religion, politics and technological development.
