Henry V Halfpenny sub type?

Recommended Posts

Hi

Can anyone possibly give me the sub-type of this Henry V halfpenny.

Rob i.d it for me as withers type 5.

The coin is 0.47g and 13mm across, with a soltire stop after TAS.

The sub groups are determined by the punctuation. Unless you can identify or eliminate saltires and/or apostrophe contraction marks, the coin must remain a generic type 5. If it only has a single saltire on the reverse, that makes it a reverse (i).

Best bet is to identify the bit after HENRIC.

It would appear to be Withers 5b /rev I, Broken annulets by hair, appostrophe and saltire after HENRIC and saltire after TAS. S 1795, N 1409
