I absolutely love short crosses - something special about the Planteganant Period. Well done - its a cracker.

No idea on the ID mate - Peter will be your man. It could be one of several.

Great find

Neil

I'm still trying to pin it down exactly. It's probably Richard I (but possibly John), moneyer Ricard, London mint.

Thanks for the nice comments and I appreciate everyone's efforts to identify the coin. I think its my first Richard. Amazing to think that its lain there untouched for 800 years till this afternoon. I've a few other hammered that I've not managed to identify from the last few years so will be uploading some and hope folks will be as kind again. Many thanks, I like this club.
