JN13 Posted 23 hours ago Posted 23 hours ago Hi, I recently bought a rare Henry I Double Inscription Type Penny, which I am very happy with, but I have been unable to identify the mint and moneyer of the coin. I think I can make out 'PA...N...ATR' on the reverse, but I am not sure. I have uploaded a photo of the reverse of the coin, so any help anyone can give would be much appreciated. Thanks Quote

Rob Posted 18 hours ago Posted 18 hours ago If it is as you say, the obvious candidate would be Gilpatrick at Pembroke, the mint being written, PAN or PAIN. Have you tried searching the EMC database at the Fitzwilliam? If it was found by a detectorist it should be recorded with the PAS and the details will be uploaded to the corpus. An auction would not necessarily be recorded there unless found under the treasure rules. Where did you get it? 1 Quote
Citizen H Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago I'm no expert in the slightest .... I did take look at Spink and saw 1272 Double inscription type coin, this is all very interesting and sure the other will be able to help out, all the best "H" Quote
JN13 Posted 1 hour ago Author Posted 1 hour ago I looked at the EMC database but could not find the coin. I bought the coin off a reputable dealer on Ebay, who said that it was brought into their antique shop in East Anglia along with a load of ancient coins, so I would imagine that it was a detecting find.
