NumisRob Bedrock of the Community United Kingdom 17883 Posts	Posted 01/29/2022 3:51 pm Looks like a William I PAXS penny to me. Replicas of these coins are sold everywhere - you'll see them in castles and stately homes in England. I honestly don't know these coins well enough to be able to identify a genuine one. Is it quite thick? Is there a visible line around the edge? Most replicas are cast and there is a seam around the edge. And is the coin magnetic?
