Nah, its a Richard 1 penny 1189-1199ad. Spinks type 1348c 4b.

The moneyer was illiterate and couldnt spell his name. it looks like TRVENE O N.LN which is not a known moneyer. It could also be a very poor attempt at steven but several of the letters are misshapen.

Eric the penny IS king John, the moneyer was Stivene who minted coins in London from 1199 to 1204. You need a better book Wink

I checked King John but couldnt find one with a Sceptre on the right and Spink doesnt show Stivene as a moneyer for John. You may be right about the book Geoff.

I'm afraid Spink was developed as a sales catalogue of coins they sell and contains only about an eighth of the actual number of British coins that are out there.
