    It's definitely Edward III, looks to be a Pre-treaty period issue, potentially type C.

    Welcome!

    Firstly, nice acquisition and great to hear your excitement with hammered alongside milled! The XII here refers to the denomination. So this is a twelvepence, a.k.a. shilling. I don't have my literature to hand so will let others answer the i.m. and bust questions.

    Can't seem to locate it, Stu. Got a link to hand?

    As far as I'm aware, no. Just multiple reverses, which lends credence to the theory it's not a pattern. This is an interesting article by Mayhew on types: http://www.britnumsoc.org/publications/Digital%20BNJ/pdfs/1988_BNJ_58_6.pdf The Galata Guide is an interesting read but a whole new approach does need to be taken, I agree.

    Can the same be said for the 1b which seems to have attracted attention of the pattern variety?

    Great title, great coins... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/cnut-coin-norman-1st-coin-penny-/112323229637?hash=item1a26fc77c5:g:SmkAAOSw2gxYuhN5

    Scarce and well struck! Is it definitely a cut half, though? Hard to tell from these images. I've been fortunate enough to handle a few of these Raven pennies but have yet to call one my own. Envious.

    These lovely Anglo-Saxon pennies, found in Andorra... http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/Anglo-Saxon-Coins-c-600-1066/58523/m.html?item=222413855830&hash=item33c8e61c56%3Ag%3A-AIAAOSwNnRYhIrk&_ssn=anglo-saxo66

    Definitely some surprising attributions in there... http://www.londoncoins.co.uk/?searchlot=1676&searchtype=2&page=Catalogue

    Another gem, they just keep on coming. Obverse legend starting with an h, is it Hichard the Turd? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rare-circa-1483-1485-A-D-King-Richard-III-Medieval-Period-Silver-Penny-Coin-/272543253582?hash=item3f74d8044e:g:XXkAAOSw5cNYd6tp

    Know what you do at karaoke now, Peter.
  14. HistoricCoinage
    That's a stunning specimen! Nice acquisition.
  15. HistoricCoinage
    An exact same one as above was listed on eBay as a Colorado transport token, but this was an error. I can't find any other exact matches but I agree the 6p is an odd amount.
  16. HistoricCoinage
    Maybe a token for use on a cruise? e.g. http://coinedformoney.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/1994-holland-america-cruise-line-25.html
  17. HistoricCoinage
    Looking at other sold examples on eBay will give a good indication of value, bear in mind various spellings (Mark/Marc & Anthony/Antony) - e.g. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Marc-Anthony-Denarius-/152281522685?hash=item2374afa1fd%3Ag%3AilIAAOSwTA9X8VHv&nma=true&si=CT2h6HrctTHis5Cr%252BdHSamjhgP8%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

    Looks to be a Marc Antony denarius. These tend to go for around £40 - £75 depending on rarity/condition of individual coins.

    Spent NYE in Iceland. A breathtaking winter getaway. Managed to sneak a Viking coin hoard into the agenda, too.
  20. HistoricCoinage
    Looks to be a Canterbury. Have highlighted the curves which aren't part of the S in hENRICVS having inverted the colours.
  21. HistoricCoinage
    Looks like a class 3d to me.
  22. HistoricCoinage
    All the best for the festive period, however you celebrate the time. Thanks, all, for your posts!

    Will definitely check that out, Dave. Was in Munich in the spring but didn't do too much church-hopping. Jerry - that place looks amazing and I'm very envious of the project that awaits. Keep us updated!

    Was in Germany last week for a wedding and decided to tag some Christmas markets on the end. So my view this week of Cologne Cathedral:
