Question for the #orchard hive-mind: has anyone heard of, or can supply references to, an apple cultivar called 'Hundred Ha'penny'?
Can't find a mention of it in any of the usual sources. I've checked a good two dozen or so, C18th to current.
(Plz do re-post even if, like me, you know nowt...)

Try IDapples at https://mofga.org (as an email address) for a start. If you get no response please let me know and I'll look further.
Do you have any more context? Was it for cider?

They have an apple called 'Old Hundred' listed, but no other close matches.
And the old catalogues of the precursor RHS / LHS Chiswick Garden don't mention it either...
