My catalogs don't go back this far. There is an annotation "King John, Britain 1d, 1368" on the paper. I don't think that is right. I have searched the web and I think it might be a Henry III long cross penny.

Can someone more knowledgeable comment?

Yep, no long cross pennies until Henry III. Like the legend says, HENRICVS REX III. Minted by IOHS ON CANTER, or Johannes (John) at Canterbury, for John Terri, sworn in as a moneyer in 1250.

on the left picture I think I can read 'HENRICUS REX....' so you might be right

I found this about such a coin :

pdf page 41, book page 25

You can download the PDF on :
