Paddy Posted April 1, 2013 Posted April 1, 2013 My first post here, so please be kind!I recently acquired the attached coin. It came to me loosely identified as Edward the Elder, but after careful examination and comparison in JJ North's book, I suspect it is Eadred (or possibly Eadgar) with the HT1 reverse. The problem is I cannot make any of the moneyers listed fit with the words on the reverse.Can anyone help me nail this one down? Quote
Rob Posted April 1, 2013 Posted April 1, 2013 Eadgar 2 line, NE variant. N 741, moneyer is CAWELIN/CAPELIN depending on whether the Saxon P for W applied in the north-east Quote
