Wigmund was a medieval Archbishop of York, who was consecrated in 837 and died in 854.[1]
Coinage
During the ninth century, both kings of Northumbria and archbishops of York minted styca coinage.[2] Historian Stewart Lyon estimated that Wigmund produced coinage from between 837 to 846.[3] The coins issued by Wigmund were minted by a number of moneyers, including Aethelweard, Hunlaf and Coenred.[2] Unique and separate from the copper-alloy, mass-produced stycas, is a gold solidus, produced by Wigmund potentially as an ecclesiastical gift.[4]
