The Fitzwilliam Museum - Normans, William of Aumale, earl of York (1138-79), silver penny, York mint, c.1150. Obv. WILL / EAMVS, standing figure in armour and helmet brandishing a sword, mullet in field. Rev. cross patée in quatrefoil, with annulets on cusps and in margin, pseudo inscription containing E, ?, B, I, and symbols typical of the Ornamental York series (unique, unpublished), rim chipped, 0.99g. From St Jamess Auction no. 3 (3 October 2005), lot 176; no prior provenance, but seems first to have been offered in the trade early 2005, and probably a recent find.
