    The big one really is a George III sixpence, any ideas on the inscription meaning? I've put a sixpence next to it just for comparison of size. Not sure if its a love token or a Georgian game of some kind as its been inscribed. I have no idea how someone squashed this but you can still see the inscriptions around the coin.

    I took a look at your site, your coins are a nice dark copper colour. Coins out of the soil always come out green, would they be acceptable to a collector?

    Thanks for the info. I always thought coppers as no good for collecting in this condition.. Over the years I have had hundreds maybe thousands out of the fields, going to start taking a safer container with me as some of the Vicky pennies come out in lovely condition but end up falling apart in my finds pouch.

    Are Victoria pennies worth checking for being rare in this condition? Thanks for any help.

    Thanks, really nice work.

    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.

    As close as I can find so far, legend on reverse of mine I believe will say HOLLHO then maybe a mint mark of some kind., then P or T obverse is slightly different as well, no small cross before HOLLANDIE on this coin I'm still searching, lol never looked at so many coins from Holland.

    now that would be a good idea!

    Thanks again Rob, Much appreciated.

    Its strange stu how all the gold I have found has come out in lovely condition, just a George IIII Sovereign I had that maybe be me or the plough had dinked it.
  12. Gaz T
    Is there a reference to the obverse Rob?
  13. Gaz T
    Just putting this coin in the correct section as it is a lovely hammered coin. The reverse die is the same as number 200 in the famous Schneider collection but the obverse has the mint mark in a different place, maybe an over mark.
  14. Gaz T
    hammered!!!!

    the one I put up dave is a sixpence.
  16. Gaz T

    Thanks guys, so just normal. was this normal practice as well back in Elizabethan times. 5 stamped over the 4

    Just wondering if the date on this coin has a normal 6, 9 . they both look like the same open backed punch, is this correct for this date?
  20. Gaz T
    Thanks. will put it as Edward II jeton
