Title: Halfpenny, but is it Eddie IV Post by: Techony on February 16, 2011, 07:29:47 PM Hi Peter,
The best I can come up with for this one is Edward IV halfpenny. Luckily, they've clipped off almost all of the inscription on the obverse and the mint on the reverse. So we are left with CIVI / TAS visible which is really useful, LOL! Would be grateful to hear your views if I'm wrong again ;D Title: Re: Halfpenny, but is it Eddie IV Post by: handyman [Alan} on February 16, 2011, 07:31:05 PM that looks lovely now u cleaned it up!

Nice find even though it's clipped. I think this is one of those where a best guess will have to do, and I agree it is most likely to be an Edward IV halfpenny, mint uncertain. Title: Re: Halfpenny, but is it Eddie IV Post by: Techony on February 16, 2011, 10:00:04 PM Many thanks Peter,
