Henry I (1100-35), silver penny, type 13, Cambridge mint, moneyer Algar Fresa, 1.27g. From Granta Coins and Antiquities, 23 Magdalene Street, Cambridge; found near Fulbourn, Cambs., August 2001. This is only the fourth known coin of Cambridge of Henry I (two of type 5 and two of type 13), and its very clear mint-signature (GRA) vindicates the tentative attribution to Cambridge of a specimen in the Conte collection, struck from the same obverse die.
