Title: Cut quarter for ID please Post by: DomR on September 21, 2015, 11:52:13 AM I found this cut quarter at the weekend on the same site as the cut half of John I found recently. It looks very similar but I'm not sure if there is enough on it to positively ID it...

The only moneyer with a name ending in 'O' is Hugo, which could be Lincoln Class 1b, Northampton Class 1a-1b or York Class 1a-2. So most likely to be Henry II, but could be just into Richard I.
