Edward III Groat, but what date?
chrislamb posted a topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Hi, I found this coin a few weeks ago metal detecting. I'm pretty sure it's an Edward III Groat and obviously a Bristol mint but the date I think it would be is 1356 from the examples in Spink's coin book. Also I would like to know if this has any value. Thanks in advance. Chris And the reverse: -

I think you're right there, it looks to me like a crown mint mark what do you think? -

Thanks Geordie do people really collect quaters??!! I wouldn't have thought they would be either interesting or valuable enough for someone to collect??!! -

Thanks for all that, I will be giving it to my local Finds Liason Officer who will do a report on it. I will report back here once I get it back. Cheers Chris -
Don't think it's roman, could you post both sides of the coin (& larger!!) & perhaps put it in the English coins part.

chrislamb replied to chrislamb's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
In Spink it says the star mint mark is 1514-26, but also the CD beside the shield makes it the one you said but the dat it gives is 1530-, how can the mint mark date be different from the date given to shields with CD either side? -
The coin is quite large at 3cm in diameter.

Yeah, you can use the images, I may have over cleaned but I dont mind & it's not particularily valuable, & I prefer them nice & shiny.
-
I am a little confussed I am not sure if this coin is Domitius or Domitian, any extra info would be great.
-
Thanks very much!!! thats exactly what it is!!

I found this coin while metal detecting, I could not make anything out so I got to work with a cleaning tool just to see if anything came out, & I was very suprised to see a war elephant on one side & possibly Britania riding a horse on the reverse!!! Does anyone have any ideas about this coin??? http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/3228/elephantcoinjk7.jpg http://img241.imageshack.us/img241/2595/el...treversexv1.jpg

Pretty coin. Congratulations. It is a Denary minted in the year 87 AD. with Palas in the reverse. RIC 102-C. Eduardo If you are interested in Roman coins have a look at my page: http://www.grifomultimedia.it/adg/monrom/Index.htm Thanks, you are welcome to use the image on your site if you want, as you don't have a denarius of Domitian. I have a higher resolution image as well.

I DIY'd it, with a fibreglass cleaning pen & lemon juice!!!

Just thought I'd show what cleaning does!!!

I've got Spink's Coins of England, but was not sure if there was a way of dating them to a smaller period of time than the reign of the monarch.
