Beautiful pieces!
-
If you can post images someone here might be able to help.

We had copper alloy issues in the Northumbrian kingdom (not the most beautiful of coinages...), but otherwise Colin is right in that we don't see any real copper until James I.

I'd gladly put money on it being a modern replica.

I use the Lighthouse/Leuchtturm and find them perfect for my needs.

Have a look here, Descartes. -

Best basic identifier for voided cross pennies?
HistoricCoinage replied to jelida's topic in British Hammered
I'd also like to share Robert Page's site - it's definitely worth bookmarking: http://www.henry3.com/ -
I really love these milled issues. They look so good in hand that they almost look fake... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Extremely-fine-1st-milled-issue-1562-sixpence-Elizabeth-1st-coin-/141890217073?hash=item210950e471:g:4NYAAOSwvUlWq1cp

Elizabeth I Shilling, looks to be initial mark Escallop making this the Sixth Issue coinage and minted 1584-1586. Nice find, and not often pierced for secondary use in this period.

I've got hundreds spare here: http://historiccoinage.com/images/Coin%20Catalogues.xlsx Let me know if any (or all!) are of interest.

I have a Victorian cabinet that I bought from Malcolm Ellis years ago and a Nichols 'Crozier' I got at an auction. They're both fantastic and I combine them with capsules - great way to store them if you've got a large space in a bank vault.

Comments invited on this eBay item - does it look ok?
HistoricCoinage replied to Paulus's topic in British Hammered
Avoid. -
All the best paulus.
HistoricCoinage replied to PWA 1967's topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
Happy birthday! -
The Agnus Dei penny is exceptionally rare but the imagery itself isn't all too scarce for this period. Here's an image I took, the motif is all the more enchanting in-hand. One example I've drawn comparisons with is the early 11th century Brussels Cross.
-
Indeed. Beautiful coins.
-
Look forward to seeing some larger, clear images soon. Welcome to the forum.

I've only gone and bought myself a slabbed coin. I must admit I was intrigued by how a hammered coin would appear slabbed, as I've never seen one in person. But I did buy it for the coin and so I'm now contemplating the best method of breaking the coin out, especially as the NNC do not seem to be as respected as other TPGs. I'm thinking of using a small hacksaw to open the slab but would welcome any suggestions.

Please do let us know as I'm sure Jens Christian Moesgaard will be able to help.

Tough Mudder
HistoricCoinage replied to TomGoodheart's topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
I've not done Tough Mudder but many of my friends have and, as PWA says, it's more about the taking part with these events - something you'll look back on fondly but probably be in pain during. I used to run competitively and have done ultramarathons so am used to training schedules for these sorts of things. Let me know if you have any questions but I'm sure you'll be fine! -
It's a Scandinavian issue in the imitative style of Aethelred II's Longcross issue. This is the English issue: Try and get your hands on some of Brita Malmer's work as that will have it in if it's an official issue and not a Baltic/Scandinavian contemporary forgery/imitation.

Very rare because it's unresearched... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UNRESEARCHED-HAMMERED-PENNY-VERY-NICE-CONDITION-VERY-NICE-RARE-COIN-/252120779344?hash=item3ab391ca50:g:DpoAAOSwl9BWGjnj

My thoughts are with you and your daughters, Peter.
