The Lord Stewartby collection represents the finest collection of Scottish coins ever put together by a private individual. Now housed in the Hunterian at the University of Glasgow, it covers the entire history of Scottish coinage from the twelfth to eighteenth centuries. This volume, the third to be published, presents coins from the later reign of Alexander III to the death of Robert II (1280 to 1390). These coins reflect a dramatic, formative period in Scottish history. It saw several periods of conflict with England, as well as the establishment of a new dynasty whose coinage showed several innovations, including the first large silver groats and the first issues in gold. The material presented in this volume constitutes a vivid, rich record of medieval Scotland's economy and government, laid out for use by all specialists in its archaeology, coinage and history.
