During Edward IV’s recoinage of 1464/5, extra royal mints were opened to cope with the need for the new light coinage. In July 1465 the mints of Bristol, Coventry and Norwich were opened and in the case of York re-opened for this purpose. Blunt and Whitton suggested that both Coventry and Norwich were closed by September 1465 after just two months of production.
