I think Chef is spot on.  A rarish coin and even in that condition worth a few hundred.  Smiley

I agree on the ID - Henry I Double inscription type (BMC XI)

Shame it's in that condition - It looks to me like it may be broken rather than cut.

Still a great find Max. Some of us have never found a single Henry I coin  Roll Eyes

Thanks Geoff/Pete for the ID. I think the plough has had it as well, Shame! that's why our hobby is so important, to try and save and record what we can before it's lost forever. Smiley thanks all.
