Edward III?

[Gaz T]

Help needed with the i.d of this coin,

I think its Edward III Durham mint, I'm not sure but maybe it has a double end Crozier, or it could be an annulet after TAS. I cant find any reference to this.

Thanks for any help.

I think your on the right track Gaz. Not 100% sure but i think its pre treaty period series G type F.  Spink 1595. 

In Christopher R Wrens book The English long cross pennies 1279 -1489 he mentions both type F and type G as having pellets in TAS (page 94) Sadly the book does not have any illustrations to go on though so this is why i am not 100 % sure. Perhaps Dave Greenhalgh will be able to give you a more definite identification when he's on next.
