Well done -  2 in a day is great going. Top one is an Edward (post this in Ask the Doc forum and Peter will tell you exactly who).

The bottom one any chance of a bigger picture?

Thanks for posting them. Were they found in Wales?

Cheers
Neil

Nice finds. I think the top one is an Edward III halfgroat, and the other maybe an Edward IV halfpenny, but a bit hard to tell with the size of the pictures. Please can you post better pictures of both sides of each coin.
