I found the smaller( halfgroat ) of Henri VI calais mint yesterday and the larger two of Edward IV groats a few months ago
Whats interesting is that the smaller coin and the larger coins were on both sides of the war of the roses - Henri VI ( Lancastrians ) and Edward IV ( Yorkists )

Nice finds, I take it the 2 Groats were declared under the treasure act, as does the 1/2 Groat now, hopefully they will be returned to you  Wink Wink well done.

Sorry missed understood,  as they look similar wear and condition, amazing to come from 3 different fields, and 2 different countries  Wink as for their era, had they come from the same find spot it wouldn't exempt them from possible treasure? given the closeness of the reigns..  Wink either way cracking finds.
