Mr_Stephen Valued Member United Kingdom 62 Posts	Posted 02/08/2013 09:18 am Hello! Picked up a 'medieval halfpenny' for cheap recently and found it was a Richard II rather than the usual glut of Edwards. Which is nice! However, other than that it's 'civitas London' and of "Rich..d Rex Angl" I can't get much further with it. Can anyone help narrow down a year range that's not just '1377-1399'...? Many thanks!

How about you take up the reins on that task! All Richard II halfpennies were minted in London, by the way. Report this Post to the Staff
Mr_Stephen Valued Member United Kingdom 62 Posts	Posted 02/12/2013 03:22 am As you say, styles are defined. After googling, it appears to be an intermediate issue, London mint (1377-1399 AD ; North 1331b; Withers Type 1) Now, as to where the early, intermediate and late styles begin and end is something I wouldn't even know where to begin with...!
