  1. Charles the Bold - Double Patard c.1467 -1477 Ad. https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/398107
  2. Both reported. ?
  3. Chichester is a hard one to get hold of as well.
  4. It is yeah. I think its Henry II/ Richard though. Not sure Halli struck under John. I don't normally collect cut halfs but can't resist it when a rare mint pops up.
  5. Done that once or twice ? AIIB i call them. Short for alcohol induced impulse buy!
  6. Found it on the bay mixed in with a load of unresearched bits an bobs of hammered coins. If anybody is after one similar somebody's listed one last night on its own though i think the description is wrong perhaps. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/John-cut-half-hammered-silver-penny-Halli-on-Rhuddlan-moneyer-mint-VF/263326027152
  7. Stunning!! I'd of been gutted if I'd of dropped that back in the day.
  8. I thought it had been annealed when I first saw it. It's very bright!
  9. Half penny of Rhuddlan. Group 1 Class 1 of Henry II or Richard. Moneyer Halli.
  10. You've lost me. ?
  11. Fairly new to the market them replicas with the heart shape stamp. Last few years anyway.
  12. Try and haggle him down a bit lol. If you want a rough idea of value on the merk see what there going for in that condition on eBay. Good luck with them. Here's a similar one. There ain't many on there though. Saw another one for £550 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Scotland-Silver-Charles-II-Merk-13s-4d-S5611-1673-First-Coinage/382278605456
  13. Am skint now lol. I've shelled out just shy of £200 this week on short cross coins. Christmas snapping at my heels as well i think am done til January.
  14. Unfortunately yeah we are. I just hope he didn't part with too much cash for it. I'd definitely be chasing a refund for it that's for sure.
  15. I think it would be. The merks the really valuable one out the bunch. The Longcross is a good grade also. I suppose if the Geo III trio was ok it would be a good deal. The Charles 1st is a bit shagged. ?. You might make back what you shelled out if you put the merk back on eBay i suppose.
  16. It is indeed. Triangle mintmark. That lot was easily worth the £200. Keep an eye out for a relist ?. He might even lower it lol.
  17. There not cheap. Thats the first I've seen under £300. I bet he didn't have a clue it was a merk/ half merk.
  18. Rosette Mascle Henry VI Groat , Calais.
  19. Looks fine. It is a scottish coin (merk). Some have marks below the bust. The profile looks Scottish. Some have a small F for Falconer or a thistle below the bust. I can't make it out fully as i am on my phone.
  20. Very true! New discoveries come to light all the time. There could be a hoard sat buried with a new moneyer or moneyers in it. You never know.
  21. I know. Just looked. He didn't mint Canterbury so scratch him off. Could it be Spink 2032.Would you say that's a knot below the bust?
  22. I believe its a Henry VI half groat. Canterbury or Edward IV half groat. But get a second opinion.
  23. It's a cast replica. It's marked with the little heart shape to the left of the portrait which shows it to be a replica. That's why its mushy looking and lacks detail. Sorry http://trade.ancestors.co.uk/products/timeline/coins/saxon-norman-william-i-penny-2023-6
  24. J.P Mass almost solved this one. He knew of a cut half with USTIN on it of Henry II class 1b1. He couldn't attribute it to any mint nor did he guess the missing letter , could of been Justin as well as Austin i suppose. Its listed as an unknown coin of Henry II in his book on page 86.
  25. Working from right to left Your spot on with the ID of the first full coin. Its a 5a2 of Ricard under John. The other full one i can't make out. Middle one is Henry III Nicole London. Looks to end VN i think. The second to left i cannot say for sure. I'd need a better image so I'll skip that one. Last on left is Henry II Alain London so you were almost right with that. It is class 1a5 or 1b1. Overall you've done very well for a first attempt. You may well be correct on the two i skipped. I'd need better images.
