Spotted On Ccf

[bagerap 706]

I've never got started with hammered even though I studied Latin and Anglo Saxon. Doesn't stop me reading about the though.

This link was put up on CCF, and I'm wondering how useful it would be to detectorists and hobbyists?

I always use that as a quick glance for mintmarks etc.

It's been a quick reference for many years for countless people. Definitely worth bookmarking.

I'm not sure it is worth having the full English translation in the table given that you would never find a coin with translated legend. Commonwealth coins being in English require no translation. I usually sell early editions of North to detectorists. Cheap and cheerful as a reference, I think a net based one is less obviously useful in the field, and in the case of the link not particularly helpful when a high grade coin image would do a better job as you could actually see what was written.

That's the article where Richard identified his 2b rose marked shilling as ex-Francis. See plate 3.

You can - there's always the option to download a pdf in your browser, it's part of the Flash implementation.
