hammered coins....Rubbed.

[Citizen H]

These two have had me wondering for months, both being rubbed I cant even make out who the crown is....

any suggestion? Many thanks "H"

I shared these photos with another expert.

to my surprise they both have been identified in this condition. 😲

Edward I, penny, Canterbury. CIVI TAS CAN TOR

Edward I, base silver, large flan, farthing. London LON DON IEN SIS

crikey I nearly put them in with the others that are rubbed beyond recognition. 

This has been a great end to the year for me.  👍🍻

The second coin reads ‘CIVI TAS LON DON’ not ‘ LONDONIENSIS’ and judging by its size is probably a halfpenny not a farthing. Have you bought a suitable scales yet?
