I believe it is a Henry VII halfgroat, Canterbury mint. Title: Re: Hammered for id Post by: Mark on January 21, 2010, 11:30:13 PM Hi Peter, its curcumference is 20mm in its clipped state.

Title: Re: Hammered for id Post by: The Doc on January 23, 2010, 07:35:53 PM 20mm is about right for a halfgroat, confirming the ID above.
