I think you're right there, it looks to me like a crown mint mark what do you think? -
Edward III Groat, but what date?

Hi, I found this coin a few weeks ago metal detecting. I'm pretty sure it's an Edward III Groat and obviously a Bristol mint but the date I think it would be is 1356 from the examples in Spink's coin book. Also I would like to know if this has any value. Thanks in advance. Chris And the reverse: -

Hi all, I found this at a metal detecting rally yesterday, but the closest I have come to id'ing it is a King John Irish penny, but that has a triangle of the reverse. Any ideas ?? Thanks Chris the obverse: The reverse: -

Thanks for all that, I will be giving it to my local Finds Liason Officer who will do a report on it. I will report back here once I get it back. Cheers Chris -
Don't think it's roman, could you post both sides of the coin (& larger!!) & perhaps put it in the English coins part.

chrislamb replied to chrislamb's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
In Spink it says the star mint mark is 1514-26, but also the CD beside the shield makes it the one you said but the dat it gives is 1530-, how can the mint mark date be different from the date given to shields with CD either side? -
The coin is quite large at 3cm in diameter.
