    I enjoy the way she attempts a pop at the privileged members of the cabinet etc.

    If you do too, have a look at her Wikipedia entry and get your head round who her family are/were.....

     

    Aha!!

     

    In my sister's house, she is genuinely only ever referred to as "  'Ol bendyface'"....

     

     

    So, not quite this then. An oldie, but always worth another look....

    Nearly. It's an Edward III Florin halfpenny, S1557 and not 1558 as the legend ends in REX and not REX AN.

    It's one of these.

    So, are those trefoils on the reverse of my coin not trefoils at all but pellets flattened by wear ? They certainly don't match the pellets on your lovely coin. Is this why I was searching in the wrong place?

    May I also request an ID please?

    I've had this for years but have never known for sure exactly which it is. It's one of the Edwards, London, and, at 14mm, I assume a half penny.

    Can anyone (Rob?) assign a Spink number? Thanks.

    I did try again last night myself but still no luck.

    Is that a cross patée on the obverse, and trefoils in the reverse quarters (or maybe a ship's propellers)? I did think S1558 a possibility, but the obverses don't match. Could it be it's not a half penny and I'm looking in the wrong places?
