Pot hook N and star on breast a clear class London 9b

Or Charles I, you’ll have to take a closer look at the legends under a good light 👍

A Stuart copper farthing!

Yes, the Short Cross is Henry III class 7 and the moneyer is indeed TERRI of London. The long cross is class 3 and Canterbury (O\| CANT)

Don’t forget your scales, they’re a cheap and very worthy item too! You could always check out Rob’s website to see if he has any on there, he sells most things? 👍 https://rpcoins.co.uk/

No, I’m talking about this link as being your SECOND Elizabeth threefarthings! You were saying you only had ONE, I was merely pointing out that you have TWO!

You have 2 threefarthings

It’s dated 1578 over 1575 as mentioned earlier in the post.

No yours is a threefarthings, much smaller than a threehalfpence. If you look at the halfpenny and consider whether you could squeeze three of them into the coin pictured alongside it, that should help you understand the scale of things.

Apologies, an evening out with friends! The most important detail in this are the busts, the threehalfpence was only ever issued with one bust (3G the bust you shared off the numis site). Size isn’t always the best tool for identifying these tiny coins, as the flans can spread with some considerable variance, depending on how heavily they’re struck. You need to buy yourself a set of scales because, in the absence of knowing the bust types, they’ll quickly give the game away on grounds of weight alone.

Just realised the original post says 1 1/2 pence (threehalfpence), so not spot-on after all!

You are spot on with the threefarthings…it is, however, a reverse die that’s believed to be 8 over 5, so an overdate. The halfpenny is 100% genuine and is, in my opinion, the best coin you’ve shared on this forum so far…I’d give you £100 right now for that coin (which means you could probably get £130 if you sat on it). Nice coin!

I’d say yours is genuine, H…and yours is a different bust, Paddy, not the same Spink number as the OP

My ‘67, which is an awful picture, cost me £300 as a further guide.

I picked up a ‘67 a couple of years ago, one of my 4 Victorian pennies and, sorry to say, not for sale. Not a great picture unfortunately, but I’m curious, are they harder to come by? Why ‘65 & ‘67?

Very convincing tone, though!

‘Pleasing uncirculated’ halfcrown if you’re looking for one?

It’s fine, James, just mark me anon if you have to put anything

That picture…what a gift! Well done for seeing it through, Rob!

A bit like this one…this is a 7a

Looks like an Edward I Class 7 penny with rose on the breast to me! Most likely 7a, looking at the crown and face, a rarer class of the Edward series.

You may be right, something’s definitely adrift? The starting prices are crazy-high too, I can’t even begin to imagine them selling.

I really like the idea of a monarch run!
