Errrrrrrmmmm??!!?? I do seem to have an eclectic Collection / Hoard of foreign coins mixed in with British Hammered coins.. does the cross seem to be familiar? I thought it may be a French cross....? I try not to resolve in using Google search....however I can waste hours and end up with nothing, Google did suggest Russian...then when tried again its French Denier louis VI Im also wondering if its silver or copper, the tarnish is to good to clean... many thanks for any suggestions

Hammered coins, coming to the end....of the first box....
Citizen H replied to Citizen H's topic in British Hammered
Wow, that's great to find out, thank you, I did have to read up on Mule meaning I have read before and so this is a Error coin A mule coin is a type of error coin that features a combination of designs from two different coins, typically due to a mistake during minting. Wow.. this is very interesting to also learn. many thanks for all the time taken, its going to be an interesting few weeks as these still need to be worked through..... -
I have started a new page of Hammered coins, I have the penny's (halved) with all the information stored with them, lower down are the ones that are to rubbed to gain any further information on them.. however Ive kept them and one the hoard is finished sorting I can sit back and figure out what's their future... following on the better of the group are possibly Edward 1 Penny, the second one is City of London, as for the first...ISTO ? Class? All and any input greatly welcome, regards "H"

Awwwwwww... its been forever delayed as my copy of 2009 spink is lacking in illustrations of Elizabeth 1 smaller coinage. and after my last attempt and getting it correct I failed miserably ........ so...without rose & date...could this be a penny? 3rd/4th issues 1561-77 ?? I'm gonna need a newer Spink book! 🤔 As always many thanks, Rgds "H"

circa 1300, Medieval Spanish Hammered Silver Coin👍

Hello Paddy... unless already spotted historically I bought blindly any coins (way back pre computers day) that looked old enough to be a important find, I think the seller claimed it was Roman and I cant remember how much it was but knowing me it was under a £1, 30 odd years ago...... Paddy, many thanks for all of your time taken in dealing with my challenges. all the very best "H"
-
again taking a guess at this, could it be Roman, Denarius coin, ..................? wondering is this is coin for the uk use? Vespasian? possible date? likely to be silver? many thanks "H"
-
still looking into this being confirmed.... could it be the mm. is a crown to date it...... 1468- 69 ? and there was also a second reign...... any ideas? many thanks as always "H"👍
-
Thank you its been a great help, I seriously didn't think It would be possible to have any further information with just half a Penny, I will page these with all the information supplied, many Many thanks for all the time you have spent working with my challenges, its really appreciated. Kind rgds "H"
