Another one from the lord westair collection https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/John-1199-1216-AR-Penny-Short-cross-1204-1209/192369018832

Man you'd have to be a serious road trip with copious amounts of illicit drugs to even remotely believe that was a geniune coin. That's so bad. ?
-
You've got some quality gold pieces. ?

Its Friday and its a break from the thirsty job of hammering ? What a job he's got. Living the dream! ?
-
Monkey Hanger lol. I just looked and saw he was based in Hartlepool and the penny dropped ?
-
Cheaper & easier to overstamp the individual numbers than create a whole new die. Seems to be a really common theme on Elizabethan coinage.

Charles the Bold - Double Patard c.1467 -1477 Ad. https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/398107

Both reported. ?

Chichester is a hard one to get hold of as well.
-
It is yeah. I think its Henry II/ Richard though. Not sure Halli struck under John. I don't normally collect cut halfs but can't resist it when a rare mint pops up.
-
Done that once or twice ? AIIB i call them. Short for alcohol induced impulse buy!

Found it on the bay mixed in with a load of unresearched bits an bobs of hammered coins. If anybody is after one similar somebody's listed one last night on its own though i think the description is wrong perhaps. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/John-cut-half-hammered-silver-penny-Halli-on-Rhuddlan-moneyer-mint-VF/263326027152

Stunning!! I'd of been gutted if I'd of dropped that back in the day.
-
I thought it had been annealed when I first saw it. It's very bright!

Half penny of Rhuddlan. Group 1 Class 1 of Henry II or Richard. Moneyer Halli.

You've lost me. ?

William I PAXS Penny mint/moneyer identification?

Fairly new to the market them replicas with the heart shape stamp. Last few years anyway. -
Try and haggle him down a bit lol. If you want a rough idea of value on the merk see what there going for in that condition on eBay. Good luck with them. Here's a similar one. There ain't many on there though. Saw another one for £550 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Scotland-Silver-Charles-II-Merk-13s-4d-S5611-1673-First-Coinage/382278605456

Am skint now lol. I've shelled out just shy of £200 this week on short cross coins. Christmas snapping at my heels as well i think am done til January.

Unfortunately yeah we are. I just hope he didn't part with too much cash for it. I'd definitely be chasing a refund for it that's for sure. -
I think it would be. The merks the really valuable one out the bunch. The Longcross is a good grade also. I suppose if the Geo III trio was ok it would be a good deal. The Charles 1st is a bit shagged. ?. You might make back what you shelled out if you put the merk back on eBay i suppose.
-
It is indeed. Triangle mintmark. That lot was easily worth the £200. Keep an eye out for a relist ?. He might even lower it lol.
-
There not cheap. Thats the first I've seen under £300. I bet he didn't have a clue it was a merk/ half merk.
