Hello

Could anyone please give me an opinion on this hammered coin. I believe it is an Eliabeth I Crown with a cross crosslet mint mark so 1560-1561. It weighs 21g. Is it genuine though?

I volunteer for a local hospice charity and deal with coins that we get donated. It's usually left over travel money but occasionally we get some valuable coins. However, I have no knowledge of hammered coins and suspect this is a fake, but I'd hate to miss out on some much-needed funds for the hospice if its genuine.

Any feedback would be much appreciated.

Hi Aitch, and welcome to the Forum!
Unfortunately your Elizabeth I hammered crown is not genuine. The WRL stamp on the reverse means it is a reproduction made by Westair Reproductions Limited.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Thank you Hondo Boguss and sel_691. I hadn't even spotted the WRL on the coin. That confirms what I suspected, and I really appreciate your feedback.
