Gaz T Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 Hi, Having a search through eBay and came across this quarter noble. Would this coin be a forgery? The legend is a new one on me, I know spelling mistakes were made in the legends. The obverse legend looks like ..EXALTABITVR . IN . GAHLOIA. Quote
Matteo95 Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 The style looks quite regular to me, even if images are not perfect. From Lord Stewartby's excellent book "English Coins" at page 216 refering to pre-treaty group E : " the mis-spellings GHLORIA or GAHLORI on the quarters are less obviously explicable". So your coin could be a small variety of the coins cited above Quote
Gaz T Posted December 14, 2019 Author Posted December 14, 2019 Thanks Matteo. I will have a search for the book. Quote
