imitations of the same or similar originals. The faces of the coins present the head and shoulders of a beardless person facing the right. At his back is a square cross followed by an inscription running around the edge of the coin. The reverses of both present two full figures, hand in hand, and at the left a square cross followed by an inscription, of which only the letters ENE seem certain in both. The inscription on the faces of the coins is, however, much better preserved. On the Leyden coin it appears distinctly +CORNILI O For the English coin Stephens gives + СЛУЛ 1Л<1+1L Iо It will be observed that the engraver had first copied CORNILIO from his original, and had then erased as much as was necessary to make room for his runic inscription, which is written from right to left, as is often the case in very early runic inscriptions. Inverting the runes, they are: All of these are regular Germanic as well as Old-English runes with the exception of the one before the last, which could only be a Scandinavian form of the rune for k. As nothing Scandinavian can be made out of the inscription, it is simplest to suppose that is for, and the loss of the small stroke is due either to inaccuracy in copying the coin, or to the fact that the coin is imperfectly struck, the ornamental rim being quite gone at this point, while the edge of the metal runs across the top of the rune itself. Of these, lufu is the regular Old-English form for 'love.' In anipu we have a primitive Old-English form of an abstract formed from an 'one' by the usual abstract ending -iþu (Kluge, Stammbildungslehre, § 121, etc.), the later classical form of which would be *npu, still later *anp (Sievers, § 144 b, 244). In showing the original unsyncopated -i- of the ending -ipu (Gothic -ipa), this primitive anipu is, so far as my knowledge goes, the only Old-English form yet found. of a, It might be asked whether the inscription is not perhaps to be read ānipu, that is, that F has its Germanic value of a rather than the Old-English value and that the inscription belongs to the time preceding i-mutation. But, as I have shown in an article in Modern Language Notes for June 1896, the change of Germanic ai to Old-English a was accompanied by the change of runic F to N, and we should therefore expect N if the a were not yet mutated to œ. 79 66 The inscription æniþu lufu, or unity (and) love,' may have a political application, like the "Concordia," Consensus," etc., of Roman coins (cf. "Consesus exercit" around two figures clasping hands, on a coin of Vespasian); or the coin may have been struck in honor of a royal wedding, and the figures on the reverse be regarded as symbolic. It may be added that Stephens' interpretation of the inscription is, as usual, not worth copying. He does not hesitate to render 【 by k, as though he were dealing with a Scandinavian inscription, and he perverts the perfect ▷(=/) into a bad P(w), and then reads Æniwuluku(nung), which he thinks means King Anwulf,' though it sounds more like the name of a king of the Sandwich Islands. The consideration of the original of these barbarian coins, and of the lettering on the reverses, I shall reserve for another occasion. 6 Adjourned at 11.30. BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD.
