Its come to pass that I keep feeling the need to move on with the pile of really...really worn out hammered coins.

Ive tried and cant get beyond thinking this may be Edward I... on the reverse I can make out Civi Tas ..beyond that nothing comes to mind....

Any Ideas?

To be honest I can’t reconcile that portrait, hair, or crown at all?

I don’t suppose it would do any good to ask for a weight? The obverse looks really halfpennyesque, but I don’t think there were quatrefoil reverses on the halfpennies were there?

Ah.. as yet no scales... the size is that of a penny... the coin was identified by a authority of Hammered coins that I approached,  i don't have any others to compare with..... so I'm happy with its identification,  unless any other suggestions come along 👍

Reads ANGLIE on the obverse.

Lettering of the C & S in civitas, and the B in ‘Eboraci,’ plus the A in ‘Edward,’ and reverse-barred N in Anglie, just don’t do it for me!
