Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
trout1105 Pillar of the Community Australia 7096 Posts	Posted 05/06/2011 11:55 pm Hi Sap, The one in the middle is a 1668 Charles the 2nd crown, I put it in the scan to give a size referance. Any ideas on how old the hammered coins are? They didnt put a date on them when they made them (dopey buggers). Cheers Jim Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16938 Posts	Posted 05/07/2011 01:42 am I can't ID them down to specific types, but clockwise from the top right, you've got: - Edward (I, II or III) penny, can;t read the mint but I don;t think it's London. - Elizabeth I halfgroat (twopence), fifth or sixth issue (1582-1602). - Edward (I, II or III) penny, Canterbury mint. - Edward (I, II or III) penny, London mint. - Charles I halfgroat. - given that it looks more debased than the others, I'd guess a Henry VIII halfgroat. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
