I agree @john that these silver Pennies can get really spendy. I'll be posting one in a few decades, but that Aethelred is my only English coin from the 10th Century. Here is a Stamenon Nomisma from the Byzantine Empire that was minted between 1028 and 1034 AD. I have attributed it as S-1819.

Ok here is my last coin for this decade, a Chinese Cast Cash from the Northern Song Dynasty. It can be dated to between 1023 and 1031 AD. I have attributed it as Hartill 16.76.

Sweet silver Penny @mar! For this decade, I've only got this Cast Cash from the Northern Song Dynasty. It dates to between 1017 and 1022 AD and I have attributed it as Hartill 16.70.

Looks like maybe only these two entrants for this decade so I'm going to make this last call. Let's drop back to the decade of the 1000s starting tomorrow morning.

It is going to be pretty quiet for me until we get to the Roman empire. I have a handful to post over the next 6 centuries but not much.

Quote: It is going to be pretty quiet for me until we get to the Roman empire. I think this is true of a lot of people. I'm going to struggle for coins datable to a decade until then. But we never get to the Roman Empire because of the 410s. The only coins datable to that decade are expensive. The problem is Theodosius II, who had a long reign with undatable coins. Æthelred II the Unready First Reign Helmet Type Penny, 1003-1009
 London. Silver, 1.46g. Helmeted, armoured bust of Æthelred right; +Æ Ð ELRÆD REX ΛNGL. Long voided cross with tri-crescent terminals, central lozenge with beaded finials, pellet at centre; +EADPOLD M.#8486;.D LUND (Eadwold moneyer of London) (S 1152). Ex Mack.

This is as far back as I go. 1000-38 Hungarian Denar under King Stephen I;Huszar 1,Unger 1,Rethy I-1,CAC Vol. I/1.3/1/?. The reverse comes close but does not quite match any of the variations listed.

I take the opportunity to point more viewers (and possible commenters) to my recent thread on confirming/second-guessing my identification of a Roman coin that might be datable to the 410s.

I think you should post it in the V2 thread @j1m. Seems like a likely fit for that decade.

I can see how this coin can be Honorius, since there doesn't seem to be a star in the field. I don't understand where the dates come from. Tesorillo has 411-413 and I think Warren Etsy must get the dates from there. He then aligns them with RIC 1361 and 1365-7. But all of those are dated 408-423, which was the problem in the first place http://numismatics.org/ocre/results...ltext:GLORIABut they are all holding a spear, not a standard. The ones holding a standard are from 392-395 and not from those mints http://numismatics.org/ocre/results...ext:standard

This Randpfennig was minted some where in the 11th Century in Poland. No inscriptions, but I can identify a bishop's crook and cross. It is attributed as Gum. #59 and has a slightly raised edge from some sort of damage I think.
