  1. Looking for coins and...? 😥 One way to clean them.
  2. It looks to be an imitation of a Henry VII halfgroat (depending on diameter). I'd not think it's contemporary, it looks somewhat soapy which makes me think it's been cast and deliberately 'aged' as I see this a lot with the Westair pieces people modify before listing on online auction sites.
  3. Agreed. Likely a Pinecone-Mascle issue penny (most common after Annulet issue, I believe, and yours isn't an Annulet).
  4. https://www.ebay.com/itm/ANGLO-SAXON-LOT-OF-CUT-OFFA-EADVVEARD-SILVER-PENNIES/282967930167?hash=item41e233f537:g:FQsAAOSwgKBawVa5 https://www.ebay.com/itm/ANGLO-SAXON-WULFRED-CUT-SILVER-PENNY-ARCHBISHOPS-OF-CANTERBURY-805-832-AD/282967930169?hash=item41e233f539:g:CqAAAOSw6T9awWNO Others in the listings, too.
  5. A better Tealby than most! Nice find.
  6. Check out the photo... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/132504815553?ViewItem=&item=132504815553
  7. 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
  8. £400+?! Some flat spots and edge nibbles. Wow.
  9. I use the 14mm Lighthouse capsules and just don't shake them too much.
  10. Gutted I'll miss it this time around.
  11. 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.
  12. Very fishy looking... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Alfred-the-Great-Silver-Penny-880-899/253326991589?hash=item3afb7720e5:g:AnMAAOSwTm9aPp73
  13. 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.
  14. Nicole on Canterbury. Class 3c.
  15. Nice find!
  16. Welcome, Dave! Long time, no see.
  17. 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
  18. Amazed he dug these up... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Colection-of-Brazilian-stamps-metal-Detecting-find-/292281968711?hash=item440d5ce847:g:9~wAAOSwY99ZjfiK
  19. 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.
  20. Difficult to nail down specifically from the images, but looks to be an Edward III Halfpenny. Do you have any sharper images?
  21. 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
  22. Henry I. Nice ones, especially the lozenge type!
  23. Hard to tell from images, but looks like an Edward IV penny. Are you able to upload better quality photos?
  24. No. But this has the soapy appearance and what looks to be three letters at the same location as these usual suspects:
  25. 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"
