  1. Gutted I'll miss it this time around.
  2. 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.
  3. Very fishy looking... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Alfred-the-Great-Silver-Penny-880-899/253326991589?hash=item3afb7720e5:g:AnMAAOSwTm9aPp73
  4. 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.
  5. Nicole on Canterbury. Class 3c.
  6. Nice find!
  7. Welcome, Dave! Long time, no see.
  8. 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
  9. Amazed he dug these up... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Colection-of-Brazilian-stamps-metal-Detecting-find-/292281968711?hash=item440d5ce847:g:9~wAAOSwY99ZjfiK
  10. 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.
  11. Difficult to nail down specifically from the images, but looks to be an Edward III Halfpenny. Do you have any sharper images?
  12. 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
  13. Henry I. Nice ones, especially the lozenge type!
  14. Hard to tell from images, but looks like an Edward IV penny. Are you able to upload better quality photos?
  15. No. But this has the soapy appearance and what looks to be three letters at the same location as these usual suspects:
  16. 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"
  17. 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
  18. 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...
  19. Aethelred II Longcross penny. Moneyer: Dunstan. Mint: Exeter. Not the most common of mints.
  20. It looks to be an issue of Wulfwig at Canterbury. +PVLPIG ON CEN[T]
  21. From what I can see with these photos, yes.
  22. It's definitely Edward III, looks to be a Pre-treaty period issue, potentially type C.
  23. Welcome!
  24. 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.
  25. Can't seem to locate it, Stu. Got a link to hand?
