GERMANICVS Pillar of the Community Germany 1849 Posts	Posted 06/12/2016 11:33 am I would greatly appreciate any assistance identifying the mint of this tiny penny of Elizabeth I. The legend is not distinct around the periphery, and It was not easy taking decent pictures of this tiny coin. Hopefully they are clear enough, however, to determine where it was minted. It weighs 0,54 grams. Many thanks in advance for any help. Edited by GERMANICVS 06/12/2016 11:46 am Report this Post to the Staff

GERMANICVS Pillar of the Community Germany 1849 Posts	Posted 06/13/2016 02:52 am Peter, aiglet7, thank you very much for your replies. Very interesting. The somewhat ragged edges led me to think some of the legend may have been clipped. Report this Post to the Staff

peter1234 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1351 Posts	Posted 06/13/2016 8:55 pm Maybe clipped but I would doubt it.The weight is there or thereabouts.The flans were tiny so a fully round piece are rare as hen's teeth. Report this Post to the Staff
