Catalogue Entry: MINT00822

The Irish Mint, which Lucas [Lieutenant of the Tower] now demands possession of, was transferred from the Mint to the Ordnance during the civil wars but restored to the Mint in 1662

Author: Newton, Isaac

Normalised Text Diplomatic Text

Note

[Note on dating: Lucas lost his governorship of the Tower at Anne's accession (8 March 1702) so the document must pre-date that, but by how much is a moot point.]
