Would the town of Bree also minted silver pennies? Especially since Butterbur is specifically stated as having them.
Why couldn't the Shire and Bree have used Arnorian coins? Even though that kingdom was defunct by Buttubur's time, as long as the coins themselves were of precious metals, that shouldn't have mattered.
