I have started a new page of Hammered coins,

I have the penny's (halved) with all the information stored with them, lower down are the ones that are to rubbed to gain any further information on them.. however Ive kept them and one the hoard is finished sorting I can sit back and figure out what's their future...

following on the better of the group are possibly Edward 1 Penny, the second one is City of London, as for the first...ISTO ? Class?

All and any input greatly welcome, regards "H"

Not my area, as you know by now, but the ISTO must be Bristol mint? Not listed as substantially scarcer than any others.

From the Spink book, I think that means it must be one of the Class 2 or 3 variations.

Yes, as Paddy has narrowed it down to,  the Bristol coin is class 3cd, and it looks to me that the London coin is a class 10/11 mule, on account of the angle-backed C on the reverse.

This is an excellent resource if you haven’t any books on the series.

Wow, that's great to find out, thank you,  I did have to read up on Mule meaning I have read before and so this is a 

Error coin A mule coin is a type of error coin that features a combination of designs from two different coins, typically due to a mistake during minting.  Wow.. this is very interesting to also learn.  many thanks for all the time taken, its going to be an interesting few weeks as these still need to be worked through.....
