Title: finds from the chepstow rally 1.5 hammered, buttons and a arrow head? Post by: kaister on February 01, 2010, 10:28:47 PM there were 21 buttons but i lost 2, i think the stone is a arrow head(found in top field behind woods) eyes only in the same hole as yet another button.
pics of coins to follow Title: Re: finds from the chepstow rally 1.5 hammered, buttons and a arrow head? Post by: kaister on February 01, 2010, 10:31:45 PM the half is scottish but i havnt a clue to more details?
the whole is (i think) a henry 2nd type, richard 1st 1189-1199, spinks 1384b still well chuffed what ever they are as they are my first hammered Please correct me if i am wrong Title: Re: finds from the chepstow rally 1.5 hammered, buttons and a arrow head? Post by: The Doc on February 01, 2010, 11:05:28 PM I agree, the full coin is Richard I, and I think the class is 4b. I think the reverse reads HENRI ON LVN, ie London mint, moneyer Henri.
Title: Re: finds from the chepstow rally 1.5 hammered, buttons and a arrow head? Post by: Terry on February 01, 2010, 11:10:23 PM Kaister, the one at the top right looks like a roman coin???
Title: Re: finds from the chepstow rally 1.5 hammered, buttons and a arrow head? Post by: The Doc on February 01, 2010, 11:11:44 PM And the Scottish cut half is of the first coinage of Alexander III, dated 1250-1280. I can't make out the mint or moneyer of this one.
Both are great finds :) Title: Re: finds from the chepstow rally 1.5 hammered, buttons and a arrow head? Post by: 16.5DD (richard) on February 02, 2010, 09:40:23 AM well i got the forecast on the full coin a little out its not a slightly earlier coin from 1150's which i thought on the day ,dam but getting closer , it is similar got the henri bit mixed up see thinking it was a henri 1st stephen type penny . thanks peter your the biz on id ...
