Citizen H Posted March 8 Posted March 8 That's as far as I go I can tell that its long cross, hammered and possibly a Edward. It weighs 0.194 and in the pictures its measured in mm. could it be a farthing? to rubbed to identify? any input welcome 🙏 Quote
HistoricCoinage Posted March 9 Posted March 9 Looks like an Edward I or II farthing to me, of the later classes (e.g. 10). 1 1 Quote

Coinery Posted March 10 Posted March 10 Being in focus would be helpful, it’s a lot to ask from a blurry image. Quote

Coinery Posted Thursday at 11:13 PM Posted Thursday at 11:13 PM Indeed, the rule is in focus…however, the coin itself is most definitely not! And, who on earth is www.HistoricCoinage.com? Is he that fine fellow, who doth inhabit the county of St Cuthbert’s resting place? Quote

I reckon that’s an Irish farthing myself. Couldn’t clearly see that in the first image. By the way, that’s a VERY decent couple of images, second time round 👏👏 1 1 Quote
Citizen H Posted 1 hour ago Author Posted 1 hour ago (edited) so Ive been having a look around since the suggestion of that it maybe a Irish Farthing coming to light...so could this be. 1 Farthing - Edward I Dublin, Long Cross 1279-1284 I'm writing this down with a Question Mark alongside it.... its great to be able to place information alongside the coins even though its questionable...A huge thanks to Stu for spotting this 🙏 Edited 1 hour ago by Citizen H Quote
