One of the best descriptions I've read in a while: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/coin-hammered-and-clipped-ultra-rare-collectable-tudor-princes-in-the-tower/323020174923?hash=item4b3580b64b:g:lMoAAOSwItJaV1kX

£400+?! Some flat spots and edge nibbles. Wow.

I use the 14mm Lighthouse capsules and just don't shake them too much.

Gutted I'll miss it this time around.

Ah. Mr Thomas/Michael Millard/Hibbs... Have a look here where Tony describes him as ‘An Alleged Miscreant of the 21st Century’ and I can think of at least another dozen places he's listed including Robert Matthew's site here.

Very fishy looking... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Alfred-the-Great-Silver-Penny-880-899/253326991589?hash=item3afb7720e5:g:AnMAAOSwTm9aPp73

I'm a huge fan of this series, along with Henry III and Edward the Confessor. Here are some of my 1s. A repaired 1a, a stunning 1b and a 1c & 1d.

Nicole on Canterbury. Class 3c.

Welcome, Dave! Long time, no see.

Convenient 'weak spot' where I expect WRL was on the reverse... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HENRY-8TH-VIII-STUNNING-PORTRAIT-POSTHUMOUS-SILVER-HAMMERED-GROAT-COIN-RARE-/272889438975?hash=item3f897a62ff:g:g4EAAOSwEthZ5G8y

Help identifying silver hammered coin
HistoricCoinage replied to Declan1965's topic in British Hammered
Thanks for the video, Declan. Much clearer and definitely not an Edward III. Looks to be a class 10cf penny of Edward I or II. There is some overlap of the reigns here. -

Difficult to nail down specifically from the images, but looks to be an Edward III Halfpenny. Do you have any sharper images? -
I'd strongly recommend the Galata guide for IDing classes. It's a large A4-sized book and really helpful with line drawings. https://www.galata.co.uk/store.asp?storeAction=showDetail&stockID=19

Henry I. Nice ones, especially the lozenge type!
-
Hard to tell from images, but looks like an Edward IV penny. Are you able to upload better quality photos?

No. But this has the soapy appearance and what looks to be three letters at the same location as these usual suspects:

Pointed out the WRL stamped into this coin and hinted it might be a modern replica... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Cromwellian-Coin-/122499880839?hash=item1c858fd787:g:nXgAAOSwSypZAG~N Got called 'sunshine' and then told 'Carnt see this being a copy it was passed down from my grandad to my mother and now my mother has passed away I am selling her collection"

And more... Looks like same seller, different account. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ANGLO-SAXON-Kings-of-Wessex-AELFRED-the-GREAT-RARE-EXA-Penny-/391764960901?hash=item5b3702e685:g:F5gAAOSwkShY~u31

Plenty of fakes being sold (looks like it might be unknowingly) here. Over the past few years someone called Michael Millard-Hibbs has been setting up multiple eBay accounts and websites and flogging Saxon fakes. Whether this is someone who feel for it, I cannot tell...

Aethelred II Longcross penny. Moneyer: Dunstan. Mint: Exeter. Not the most common of mints.

It looks to be an issue of Wulfwig at Canterbury. +PVLPIG ON CEN[T]

Edward half groat I.D help please.
HistoricCoinage replied to Michael-Roo's topic in British Hammered
From what I can see with these photos, yes. -
Edward half groat I.D help please.
HistoricCoinage replied to Michael-Roo's topic in British Hammered
It's definitely Edward III, looks to be a Pre-treaty period issue, potentially type C.
