hi all, well ive received my spink catalogue and am surprised at the amount of variations! anybody care to suggest what spink code mine may be and explain why or is it to worn to tell?

great work scott, thanks

heres a picture of other side, hammered way off centre though!

hi all, ive just picked up this hammered coin/token and wondered if anybody recognises the head and initials?

thanks all, hopefully the coins a good start to a collection. it seems to be a thin line as to whats good or not so good, I presumed that a full round coins better than a damaged one but theres a trade off between full coin with slightly worn pressing as to a clearer pressing on a damaged coin? ive ordered the galata guide so hope that will help

thanks for the reply rob, im probably going to concentrate on Edward 1st for a while as there seems to be plenty of variety. need to study up a bit first though as im having trouble telling the difference between Edward 1st and 2nd pennies!

hi all, im new to the forum and new to coin collecting. I intend to collect hammered british coins and would appreciate your opinions on this Edward 1st penny, ive a lot to learn so any information would be appreciated! also what books would you recommend as guides on hammered coins? thanks in advance matt
