I thought I'd share a few of my Edward I pennies with you gentlemen, the ones shown below are a complete mint run without some of the oddities such as de Hadelie etc... All are from my own collection and will be upgraded when the opportunity arises.






Enjoy!

I have the hardest time reading what the letters are on the obverse and reverse. What do they typically spell out?
YeOldeCollector
CIVI TAS and then the mint name or VILLA then the mint name, so CIVI TAS LON DON would equal the City of London and CIVI TAS CAN TOR Canterbury etc...

very cool...I have developed a real fondness for hammered coins, their rough, more simple designs.

I love hammered coins! I'm not sure if it's so much a hobby rather than an obsession... hysterical.gif

I know that you have a few English hammered beauties! Good to see others appreciating hammereds. bthumbsup.gif

Wonderful collection, Clive bthumbsup.gif
I love hammereds, but, alas, can't afford 'em too often. All I have are an Æthelred II sceat, and a common Henry III silver penny. Nothing special.

Thanks, I have managed to upgrade quite a few of these Eddies but my main focus now lies with Anglo-Saxon and Norman pennies, got some real beauties as of late.

Nice Eanred and Nicole!! bthumbsup.gif

I'm not tempted, I've got enough interests. But, I sure like looking at them.
