Aylesbury; SCBI 13-Copenhagen: 4235(probable die match); In the 2007 BNJ article by Clarke and Symons about this mint they were able to find 27 coins in total of this mint. For the reign of Cnut there were 8 listed, all of this type, and of those three of this moneyer. None of those coins nor the one in the SCBI appear to be die duplicates of this coin. This coin would bring the number of known coins from ths mint to 28. Since this coin was added to the collection there have been three more coins from this mint found for a toal of 31 known coins. See BNS Research Blog article by Richard Ambrose from January 2020.
