I think those double struck coins are great, you can just picture the Moneyer banging away with his Hammer trying to get them just right! Well done BB Title: Re: Short Cross ID Post by: The Doc on February 17, 2009, 09:46:26 PM A very nice coin maxine, well done. The S is the right way round by the way ;)
I think it is Henry III, Class 7c, London mint, moneyer Giffrei (GIFFREI ON LV) Title: Re: Short Cross ID Post by: hedgehog on February 18, 2009, 12:22:59 AM Nice one Maxine , love the short cross coinage :D

Was it this side of the bridge or were you pillaging the English again? ;D Photo below is of a pair of hammered coin dyes, I thought members might like to see. Looks like it is for a groat.
