Mr_Stephen Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 An Edward? Certainly an 'ONS HYB' character. But can't work out the mint at all. Anyone...? Quote
HistoricCoinage Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 The visible obverse reads DNS HYB +As for the reverse, my guess would be Durham. CIVI TAS DVN ELM. Quote
Mr_Stephen Posted March 8, 2013 Author Posted March 8, 2013 On another board, it's been suggested that " the bifoliate side-fleurs on the crown make this very likely group 10 or later (after 1301). The appearance of the two smaller crown ornaments between the fleurs seems very much like group 11 to me, though (~1310-14, so Edward II)"Would anyone agree with this...? Quote
Rob Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Edward II penny of Durham under Bishop Kellawe. What there is left of the legend reads CIVI [ ] [ ] ELM with a crozier on the cross end. Don't ask which class. Quote
Mr_Stephen Posted March 8, 2013 Author Posted March 8, 2013 Thanks! Hadn't picked up on the crozier. Wonderful little detail. Quote
