I agree with Dale, if the size is right (should be 14-15mm). Edward III halfpenny of the third (florin) coinage, London mint (Spink 1557). Title: Re: Which one is it?

thank you both for the time taken to help ID this coin. It is much appreciated indeed. The coin is 15mm, so is definitely a halfpenny. many thanks again guys, may the detecting gods of good fortune smile sweetly on you both as the new season progresses. cheers Title: Re: Which one is it?
