Hello......

Spink book arrived and has been ........interesting, 👍  reading can be difficult and I tire quickly.

most Hammered coins are easy to understand with the book until........ the Edwards need deciphering......

any guidance in regards to the Edwards would be helpful as they all start looking the same.. laying the coin on the page it looks like it may be.....

S1391....? what do you think?? 🤔

Looking through what I've already had Identified I note that there's no Edward II....so far.

Pot hook N and star on breast a clear class London 9b 

Well I Never....... I really haddent spotted the Star, 

I was quite close when thinking S1391, Edward I, London, .....

a look see on Rod Blunts web page, and found........

Type 9b (c.1299 - 1300/01) - Spink 1408, North 1037/1

Coins of type 9b are divided into two varieties. 9b1 has the same crown as 9a2, but a new letter S, which is not top-tilted. 9b2 has a new crown with a straight-sided right side-fleur. Both varieties often have a star on the breast, and similar lettering. The letter A is usually unbarred, C and E are round, N is normal, unbarred, or frequently of pothook form, S is non-composite........ 

Its beginning to make sense, However I can see there's lots more to understand,

Stuart as always Many Many Thanks for the direction.... Cheers "H"
