They aren't quatrefoils but cinquefoils. I haven't a clue, sorry. A fuller flan might have given us a clue with an inscription.

Are you THE Richard the Second?

Poor auld bloky in the first had a rather rough existence me thinks, ta much meade, an' got bitten by Yorkie.

But a nice example of the coin all the whiles.

Well with a little bit more research thanks to the Edward IV lead ive been able to establish that one is a Dublin mint , sun and roses coinage . And the other , Drogheda mint, heavy cross and pellets coinage. Please tell me if im wrong.

And by all accounts they look in good condition for this type. Any idea what they might fetch?

Why not? A much admired monarch in his (brief) reign judging from contemporary European accounts. It didn't help that he wasn't on the winning side of the Wars of the Roses, and that Bad Old Henry VII had to legitimise his very shaky grip on power by discrediting his opponents. Hence the Tudor creations of a non-existent hunchback, withered arm, & constant vilification even down to the Tudor-sponsored Shakespeare take on "history".

Before anyone says it - yes, he may well have been responsible for the murder of the Princes in the Tower, but dreadful as that was, it was pretty much standard practice in those days - the Tudors did far worse to the descendants of the woman who was more directly "in line" to the throne (can't remember her name now).

Is that a Whooooosh or is Peck double bluffing?
