I know what your job would have been back in the medieval period. What do you make them out of Dave? 

That could be so misleading to someone like me, if I found that in a field, I would have a coronary ?

Fab workmanship though.

Hi TY that one is a trial piece struck in copper - actually looks better in the hand!  I tend to strike in pewter but occasionally strike in silver or 22 carat gold - I have just done a group of 30 or so silver coins for display at Wattlington - Alfredian hoard recently acquired by the Ashmolean Museum.

I always mark the coins deliberately to identify them usually with the moneyers name Grunal - (a long-lived moneyer who struck from 620 AD through to 1278 ) and also, when applicable, the mint signature TANVATS
