There is some dirt left on coin...only given it a wipe over....Be nice if it was a contemporary forgery...sometimes worth more than the real thing !     Cheers, Tom....

Hi TeeCee - what size is it please?

The legend on the coin EDW RE ANGL DNS hyB is very unusual and the square form of the first E is also nothing like any genuine coin as far as I can make out. I'll be asking for an opinion on it elsewhere.

Thank you...thats very interesting observations......It's the size of a penny and seems to match the Eddy penny size in spinks...but I just got confused with so many configurations.....   Cheers, Tom....

According to Rod Blunt on UKDFD, this is definitely a Continental sterling (imitation of an Edward I penny).

There isn't one like it on UKDFD, so if you want me to record it there, please can you post larger (say 100 - 200 kB) images on a plain white or cream background here, the exact diameter in millimetres, and where it was found (nearest town will do), and I'll get it done.
