Potential Edward Penny Reverse Legend Error

[Yucksha]

Hello,

I received the attached coin in an unidentified auction lot today and am confused by the reverse legend. To my eye it is a Group 3 (but this I am not sure of and need to spend more time having a closer look).

I think the reverse reads CIVI / TAN / CAN / TOR . Where the error is that usually TAN reads TAS.

Is this an error that comes up? Maybe the lower literacy when the coin was struck caused this?

Thanks for any help or information you can provide.

Not an error mentioned in Withers for your Edward I - there’s an unbarred TAII mentioned for Edward II, but that’s all.

I can have a look to see what North has, but that’ll have to wait for now as I’m off to work.

I think it’s more likely a Class 4 btw…that looks like a long contraction mark into the R and I reckon that’s a Class 4c crown with the nick in the left band.

You can see the nick a little easier in this image.

Thanks for having a look, and for your help with identification. 

Much appreciated as I don't have a copy of Withers.
