Citizen H Posted June 9 Posted June 9 (edited) Edward III Or Richard II, Pennies.... I believe there's x2 different kings in the group....? 1334...1356...1377...? Calais...York... London is no 4 👍 Cross Pattee...Cross 3... Mint stamp...possibly? Edited June 9 by Citizen H Quote
jelida Posted June 9 Posted June 9 2 and 3 both appear to have trifoliate crowns and read CIVITAS CANTOR for Canterbury on the reverse, both Edward I. Difficult to be sure about 4, lacking detail, may be bifoliate and is of London, probably Edward II . Number 1 has me stumped, no access to books at the moment, reverse legend seems to start with a Lombardic ‘N’ , ‘NAM’ or RAM’ and ends with an ‘S’. Could it be a continental imitation of Edward III? Thats as much as I can offer while grandchild sitting. Jerry 1 Quote

Jerry Hello Jerry, Number 1, yes you was correct its a, Belgium, +NAM[ ] suggests it is a continental copy of a sterling penny, minted by William of Namur (Belgium) between 1377 and 1391.... its very satisfying finding out what a coin actually is. 👍 many thanks one and all.
