Title: Re: GOLD I.D. Post by: simon c on January 03, 2010, 06:24:31 PM Well you could'nt ask for a better start to the New Year Kev,great find,very nice coin :o
Title: Re: GOLD I.D. Post by: Nick on January 03, 2010, 06:33:52 PM A noble was worth 6s. 8d (80 old pence) from that period, so a quarter noble would be worth 1s. 8d (20 old pence).
Depending on which price index you use for the year 1327 it would have been worth anything between £36 - £692. Quite a sum of money, the loser must have been gutted ! Well done again Kev, great find Title: Re: GOLD I.D. Post by: Salty (Karl) Cardiff Scan Club on January 03, 2010, 06:39:44 PM Thanks Nick, i was never one for history, (until now) facts like that fascinate me :)
Trying to get your head around how it was lost, and what fallout the poor sod that lost it faced :o Cheers Salty Title: Re: GOLD I.D. Post by: bymatt666 (byron) on January 03, 2010, 09:41:30 PM well done kev.....a gold coin and a crotal bell !!... ;D...what more could you want......byron
Title: Re: GOLD I.D. Post by: The Doc on January 03, 2010, 10:51:39 PM Great find Kev. It is indeed an Edward III quarter noble. I see you've submitted it to UKDFD so you should get a fuller ID there.
