Hi everyone, Can you please help me ID this coin?

I am buying a few portuguese coins from a seller and he has this one that I can to the lot for 10 quid.

Thanks in advance

Looks more like a farthing than a penny. Appears to be an earlier class of Edward I, upon a quick look.

Maybe a halfpenny, it's got a HyB obverse? Could do with a weight and/or size, really?

When I first saw it my initial thoughts were class 15 crown, because of the two left-leaning ornaments? It's just missing that second R in the legend though? I think size and weight are needed, to be honest!

Thanks everyone. My area is Portuguese hammered coins so this is a bit out of my field. Rather than asking the seller for more details I will buy the coin.

Will post more info when I get it.

PS: in fact is 7 quid (10 euros) :) even better.
