Sylvester Posted July 1, 2004 Posted July 1, 2004 You got any older hammered coins that need identifying cos i've got my North catalogue ready for action now, but it's volume 1 the c.600-1272So any pennies pre Edward I and i can help you... big time.Oh and Tom my Stephen is Shaftesbury mint cos only two Richards were moneyors during the reign one at London and one at Shaftesbury.And mine reads RICARD ON S... (London does not start with an S, so it's either Shaftesbury or an unrecorded moneyor at another S mint).What i do find odd though is that the dealer i bought it off put RICARD OF SCA... (I can't see an A but there might be a C)The Coincraft states the mint should be SCIEFT, North states SAFT. I wonder if there might be a SCAFT? Quote
BigBear Posted July 1, 2004 Posted July 1, 2004 No sorry to disappoint you but I think the earliest is Edward I pennies, I will post images this evening Quote
Sylvester Posted July 2, 2004 Author Posted July 2, 2004 Oh well it'll give me something to do... I still think Edward I pennies are some of the hardest to identify. Quote
