Wulfred was given freedom to mint coins that did not name Coenwulf on the reverse, probably indicating that Wulfred was on good terms with the Mercian king.
This is happening only to a small number of people who did not have their names on the reverse mortgage for a variety of reasons.
The Southern Sung dynasty (1127 1279) dated their coins on the reverse with regnal years, and the T'ang and Ming dynasties (618 907 and 1368 1644, respectively) put the mint name on the reverse, as did the Ch'ing dynasty (1644 1911/12), this last giving it in Manchu characters.
By Harvey S. Collins and John McCarten The New Yorker, August 11 , 1962P. 17 Note received by a purchaser of "The Horizon Book of Lost Worlds," published in Marion, Ohio: "If you have occasion to write us about your order, please refer to its identification number (shown just above your name on the reverse side)."

The pure has been made impure — sometimes in the name of the reverse.
The issues of Artaxerxes are recognisable as such because his name appears on the reverse in a local Egyptian script.
For William H. Webster, named on Friday to head the new Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the reverse is true.
He held aloft a home shirt with his name and the number one printed on the reverse, smiling broadly as cameras clicked and bulbs flashed, happily obliging as the scrum of photographers called on "Mr Van Gaal" to face left, right, left again and straight ahead.
The coin types throughout the dynasty are the same: on the obverse is a bust of the king with his name and titles, and on the reverse a fire altar, usually with two attendant priests.
The coins invariably bear a Pahlavi inscription; on the obverse (see photograph) is the head of the king, wearing his characteristic crown, accompanied by his name and title, while on the reverse is the fire altar with its guardians and a legend such as "Fire of Ardashīr" or "Fire of Shāpūr" or, in the later period, an abbreviated mint name and the regnal date.
