Could this coin be a 'Luchcombe'? This coin reminds me of one.

I say this because there was a time when poorer alloy silver pennies from the Low Countries (Netherlands and Belgium) were finding their way into England and threatening to replace good alloy English silver pennies in accordance with Greshams Law. Needless to say the English king didn't like this very much.
