Title: Todays Hammered Find Post by: rjm on November 06, 2011, 08:25:36 PM Another James 1 6d I believe. This time it looks like it may be Irish? Any other info appreciated. Date? Mint?

Title: Re: Todays Hammered Find Post by: The Doc on November 06, 2011, 08:33:48 PM Well found Bob - it's a Charles I sixpence - a bit clipped unfortunately so can't give you any more info than this.
Was the day productive generally? I saw Tom's nice coin on the Scan Club site. Title: Re: Todays Hammered Find Post by: rjm on November 06, 2011, 08:38:24 PM Well found Bob - it's a Charles I sixpence - a bit clipped unfortunately so can't give you any more info than this. Was the day productive generally? I saw Tom's nice coin on the Scan Club site. As far as I know there were three Hammered. Toms Edward 1st?, My James 1st and another hammered. No Roman. Avalon had a lovely Papal Bullae. :o :o Quite a few buckles. I also had a Cartwheel but it's worn. Nice weather. Beautiful scenery. Title: Re: Todays Hammered Find Post by: rjm on November 06, 2011, 08:39:09 PM Is the sixpence an Irish one from the Heart on shield? Title: Re: Todays Hammered Find Post by: The Doc on November 06, 2011, 09:02:44 PM Bob - it's Charles I, not James. It's a Tower mint English issue.
Title: Re: Todays Hammered Find Post by: rjm on November 06, 2011, 09:39:51 PM Bob - it's Charles I, not James. It's a Tower mint English issue. Brilliant as usual. Where were you today. I brought extra pies and some pastries! ;D Title: Re: Todays Hammered Find Post by: colin on November 06, 2011, 09:54:37 PM well done bob looks like a gold coin in that pic of james 1st oops i mean charles 1st, LOL :D

I brought extra pies and some pastries! ;D Too busy eating to leave the house ::) Title: Re: Todays Hammered Find Post by: rjm on November 06, 2011, 10:10:12 PM Any idea what date the Charles sixpence. Can't find similar shield in my book. Will go and get a few more coin books shortly to see if I can find out. Title: Re: Todays Hammered Find Post by: The Doc on November 06, 2011, 10:23:38 PM It's somewhere between Spink 2814 and 2821 (in post-2006 editions after the numbering was changed). Date 1636-1646.
Title: Re: Todays Hammered Find Post by: Chef Geoff on November 06, 2011, 10:27:29 PM Look at 2855 Bob
Title: Re: Todays Hammered Find Post by: rjm on November 06, 2011, 11:46:59 PM Look at 2855 Bob 2855 is milled, mine is hammered. Also shield on mine is flatter at bottom. I think it's 'Under Paliament 1642-9) Can't find exact one. Interesting is that they have West Country issue!! but think mine may be, as Peter said, London Mint. Title: Re: Todays Hammered Find Post by: Chef Geoff on November 06, 2011, 11:59:14 PM Ah um OK I'm stupid (note to self,must learn to read). Sorry Bob.
