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.

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 Smiley
