Title: Re: re, henry 3rd penny Post by: The Doc on October 14, 2013, 09:19:36 PM Just saw it. Any chance of a clearer picture of the reverse? - the glare makes it hard to read.

Title: Re: re, henry 3rd penny Post by: The Doc on October 14, 2013, 10:44:16 PM I'm struggling a bit. Most likely class 5c, WILLEM ON LVND, but some of the letters don't look quite right.
If you can get a better picture tomorrow in daylight please can you add it here? Title: Re: re, henry 3rd penny Post by: dances with badgers on October 15, 2013, 07:21:45 AM point a light at it from the side and angle it back a bit
Title: Re: re, henry 3rd penny Post by: Soft top on October 15, 2013, 12:09:02 PM Thanks doc and dances with badgers, seems you are both leaning toward canterbury mint, see if this last image will confirm, many thanks again.
