the two coins are as follows..... The arched crown is Henry VII, an early issue before the sovereign pennies come in. The other one is possibly Edward IV's Light Cross and Pellets Irish coinage - these have a quatrefoil centre and are virtually always struck on too small flans, so with most or all of the legend missing as here.👍

This is an Edward I penny minted in London. This is identified by the obverse inscription EDWR’ANGL’DNS[HYB] 👍

This was found lurking in with some worn Hammered coins....... Silver 6 Pfennings 1734. Prince Louis Rudolph (Ludwig Rudolf) (1731-1735) Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel (German States) apparently quite a rarity 👍

oh dear.......🫣

Well.............! starting off it amazes me that I have accumulated such a diverse range of coins...... without really trying Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth coin from 1621...who would believed it Silver (.813) oh well its old and hammered so its staying with others ...... 🙄

Errrrrrrmmmm!?!?!? I still have all of these un sifted through.... any dates or rare one that I should looking out for? before handing over to a charity ..... Cheers "H"

Will do...🫡

OMG! 😲 I have just taken a look to see how much it many be worth....Blimey... it would have a been a pocket money purchase way back.... just goes to show you you. 👍

So....the best of the worse of the worn out Hammer coins.... I did have a look see through Spink and warmed towards the Edward I... so its a Longcross, City of London, Edward I .....Class 4a....? it looked very close possibility to me .... Any thoughts ?

wow. I did do a search and found a confusing mixture of information. once again many thanks for you time taken in answering my questions. cheers "H"

James I, 1603-25 Half Groats, now then.. for some reason I thought I already posted these.. i've had a good look to no avail !?!?! odd! any ways,.................. Ive found these that look like James I, Half Groats the mm. is Mullet 1611-12 all comments welcome, cheers "H"

A interesting find amongst my hoard, turns out to be a 1786 1 Écu - Louis XVI Silver (.917) by chance does anyone know the mint mark? quite a scarce coin, 👍again bought blindly without any knowledge 30 odd years ago....

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

A recent discovery that some of my florins... below the bust you can see the Die No, makes it that much more interesting for me. 👍

Whilst sorting through others I found these mixed in as well, worth showing today, Rose & XII value mm. y & tun ( several bust varieties ) any comments or information greatly welcome. all the very best "H"

another worthy show of one of todays historical finds...boot fair circa 1990's some of the letters / numbers look miss shaped, letter I A have merged would this been due to the die being used when milled? any views & comments always welcome. 👍

I think i've found another amongst the hammered ........... Medieval Spanish / Portuguese Type of thing....Doh

aha, very interesting to find errors wondering how many others are out there like this one? Many thanks for taking the time for helping out, all the very best "H"

From the pile of worn out hammered previously shown....... Ive spent a lot of time looking through them and have decided that most are to far gone.... 😔 this one has the most details remaining .......in take of breath, Edward II Farthing, longcross, Class 1a -3de ? on the reverse i make out SIS londrien,sis ?

Another coin collector had a Looking at this, the verdict........ "it looks like an Edward IV 1st Reign groat of the Light Coinage issue (1464-70). No marks at neck, mint mark crown on the obverse. London mint." 🎉 Happy Happy Happy!!!!

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👍
