It's quite simple for me too:

Edward III 1/2 noble for hammered and a 1900 1/2 sovereign Smiley

Mind you I'm still fairly young and I live in hope Smiley

Only three known to exist at the moment - you never know what's going to turn up and gold coins of Ed III seem to turn up quite frequently (although not from that issue Smiley )

My best hammered was a very rare Henry V farthing.

Best milled was a John V, 6400 Reis gold coin. It is a Portuguese coin minted in Brazil. The date 1733 with Mintmark M (Minas Gerais) make it extremely rare with very few specimens known.
