Title: Coin ID Post by: jaydogg on December 13, 2013, 08:02:42 PM Hi Pete
I know how much you like a challenge so see what you can make of this penny I 'hoiked' out recently. There is a star to the left of the bust and another one on the obverse side right after the legend says 'TAS'. Any ideas? Cheerz.

Title: Re: Coin ID Post by: Chef Geoff on December 13, 2013, 08:18:55 PM Well done ;) I think it's a Henry VI, Durham mint :-\
Title: Re: Coin ID Post by: Dale on December 13, 2013, 08:22:51 PM Your right Geoff... Henry VI Rosette mascle issue, star to left of crown.
Title: Re: Coin ID Post by: The Doc on December 13, 2013, 09:05:53 PM Nice find.
I have to disagree with the above sorry - it's a Henry V Durham penny, Spink 1782, like this: http://www.ukdfd.co.uk/ukdfddata/showrecords.php?product=37837&cat=34 (http://www.ukdfd.co.uk/ukdfddata/showrecords.php?product=37837&cat=34) Title: Re: Coin ID Post by: Chef Geoff on December 13, 2013, 09:18:43 PM Well I did say "think" :D :D
Title: Re: Coin ID Post by: Dale on December 13, 2013, 09:27:07 PM Lol im not playing this game anymore :D
I thought the example I shown never had the quatrefoil after TAS its all learning, good work Peter ;) Title: Re: Coin ID Post by: jaydogg on December 13, 2013, 09:54:06 PM Thanks Pete and thanks for the effort guys :D
