Pieces_of_History Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 I am struggling a little with this penny, it looks a bit like Richard II's type, but what about the crosses at the bottom on the reverse side? Quote
Colin G. Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 I am struggling a little with this penny, it looks a bit like Richard II's type, but what about the crosses at the bottom on the reverse side?Not that familiar with pennies, but legend reads EDWARDVS so should be one of the Edwards, although EDWARDVS looks mispelt EDWARDWS. I would guess at Edward III, mint is York (EBORACI) and there is a quatrefoil on the reverse, as for the saltire stops on the reverse, hopefully someone will come along shortly and give you a more accurate idea!!

Pieces_of_History Posted November 8, 2011 Author Posted November 8, 2011 Thanks for replying Yes, it does look like EDWARDWS or EDWARDVIS..I don't think it will be S.1531? as can't clearly make out the three extra pellets in the 'TAS' quarter.. Quote
