Title: Lizzy 3 1/2d Question Post by: Radnor Bandit (Ian) on March 28, 2011, 06:27:25 PM Found yesterday, what I believe to be a 31/2d , 3rd issue MM pheon approx >Dia 16mm.
The date appears to be double struck maybe a 6 underneath a 7. Or is it just a engraving error? Do any of you wiser bods have any ideas ? Thanks Ian Title: Re: Lizzy 3 1/2d Question Post by: The Doc on March 28, 2011, 06:45:54 PM Nice coin. With mintmark pheon, the dates known for the threehalfpence are 1561, 1562 and 1564. I think this one is meant to be 1562. Here's one a bit similar:

Many thanks Title: Re: Lizzy 3 1/2d Question Post by: silky on March 29, 2011, 07:53:53 PM well done ian,a cracking lizzy.
