Coins as Jewelry

The first line in the entry implies that we should add the relevant scholarly consensus (since at least Grierson, 1986) about coins being used in early England for jewelry, either as a mark of status (Fleming, Britain After Rome: The Fall and Rise, 400 to 1070, 2010) or in burials (Moorhead, Roman Bronze Coinage in Sub-Roman and Early Anglo-Saxon England’, in Coinage and History in the North Sea World, c. A. D. 500–1250: Essays in Honour of Marion Archibald, 2006). However, because of the breakdown in the History category, I'm wary about where to put this information.

Honestly, thinking about it, it will probably serve to create a new section not under the banner of history, something titled like, "Early Coinage as Jewelry," but I wanted to check before making some drastic changes to the page formatting. It's definitely a large enough topic, especially if we were to link pictures in (like the hoops that were forged to make the coins hang on necklaces, seen in Gannon's 2003 book: The Iconography of Early Anglo-Saxon Coinage). — Preceding unsigned comment added by JacobAronson (talk • contribs) 17:14, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Good question. I see that there hasn't been much serious editing of this page since it was created so given your recent high-quality edits I'd encourage you to be bold and make changes that seem wise to you. It would be possible to subdivide 'history' into 'coinage as jewellery' and 'coinage as currency' or something like that? Alarichall (talk) 17:58, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
