Hi everyone,
A bit off-topic but, I think, still relevant.
Together with a friend, we are conducting a study on the Portuguese coin Chinfrão (D. Afonso V 1438-1481). These coins often appear in the United Kingdom and B. J. Cook even argues that they might have had legal tender in England "Chinfraos seem to have had a not insignificant currency in early Tudor England, as a number of finds attest. (...) Perhaps Alfonso V's
chinfraos had, in some unrecorded way, been given a legal or tolerated status." in B.J. Cook "Recent Tudor Hoards"
I am coming to you to ask for any bibliographic references, findings or any other material related to the Chinfrão.
Thanks in advance.
