If the mint mark is a crown as it appears then dating from 1635-36. Second I think is a Venetian soldino, possibly of Doge Michele Steno, 1400-1413. Third .. nice, but no idea! Celtic? Minim?

Of course, I could never hope to add to a Tom Goodheart appraisal of any Charles I coinage! Report this Post to the Staff
