I got a reply from the message I sent. Looks like it is a local forgery. Thanks everyone for their help. Dave

Thanks again Stu. Yeah that link has some very good information and I'll be using it for first port of call reference in the future. I've messaged the site owner with a couple of images and asked his/her opinion. Regards Dave

I'm going along with this. Just checking back through all reversed images I have of the coin and I can now see this inscription ^^^ Previously thought it was Durham mint, but it definitely says LIN COL. Thank you so much for your time, and also @UKSTU. Its great to get a definitive ID as it all seems to stack up now. Unless someone knows otherwise..... Cheers Dave

Thanks Stu. Yeah could definitely be one of those. Is it common for imitations to be a mirror image like that?

Hello all. Found this yesterday in the Darlington area. Looking for as much information as possible. Is it a 700+ year old forgery or could it have been struck in error? I've reversed the image with a 5p for reference, and included the original image also. Thanks, Dave
