Title: Couple new hammies Post by: david995 on September 04, 2014, 05:40:55 PM They're not great quality but still hammies :D
Help to ID would be appreciated. Title: Re: Couple new hammies Post by: Dale on September 04, 2014, 08:16:52 PM Nice finds David, they both look like Ed 1st to me the 1st is London mint and the 2nd is from the York mint ;)
Are they from the same site as the short cross and the voided long cross pennys you've been finding? Title: Re: Couple new hammies Post by: david995 on September 04, 2014, 08:18:57 PM Hi dale , thanks for the id , no i went to a new farm today , hammys are following me at the moment
Title: Re: Couple new hammies Post by: Dale on September 04, 2014, 08:50:52 PM Hi dale , thanks for the id , no i went to a new farm today , hammys are following me at the moment Lets hope the hammie run carries on for you ;) York had two mints, a Royal mint and an ecclesiastical privilege mint, the two coins legends are the same, (thats the writing around the coin) but the two coins had to look different so a quatrefoil was placed in the reverse cross of those struck at the ecclesiastical mint. So your coin is from the York Royal mint Title: Re: Couple new hammies Post by: david995 on September 04, 2014, 09:13:08 PM Once again thanks for the info ,
