today I took another chance rummage in the box of hammered coins, I chose to show this one as I'm pretty sure this is correct.

It weighs 0.9 Grms

I believe with the two Pellets that makes it to be a Half Groat.

m.m. is a Bell 1582-3

could it be I could be right ???

The obverse is a bit messy in the legend, so it appears to be an overmark - Bell over E rather than a 5th issue marked die recycled. This due to double striking looking at the SINE part of the reading
