If the size is right, the first one looks like a Philip and Mary groat. The second one is Edward IV, second reign, mintmark cross and four pellets, London mint. I assume it's a groat, then it's Spink 2096, if halfgroat it's Spink 2103. Title: Re: Two Hammered's for ID Post by: Mungo on February 08, 2013, 06:18:19 PM well done JM , 8) nice one........
Title: Re: Two Hammered's for ID Post by: rjm on February 09, 2013, 12:47:38 AM Thanks Peter. I'm amazed you got the Mary.....it was bent double and took several bouts of heating to straighten. I can't believe it was bent like it was through the plough. The Henry is a groat. :) Title: Re: Two Hammered's for ID Post by: The Doc on February 09, 2013, 05:56:27 PM Thanks Peter.
