Hi Art,

thanks for the reply,regarding the building project me and my wife strarted it in january and we finally got it water tight 3weeks ago,i finished the last bit of brickwork yesterday and we will start the facias ETC soon,the plasterboarding will begin next weekend though i dont think it will have a new kitchen in it till after xmas!! we have never done anything like this before and we are pleased with the results,the building inspector thought we were joking when we told him we didnt know what we were doing

Hi guys ive not been on here for a while as ive been busy working as well as building an extension on our house!!! i finally managed to get out metal detecting yesterday for the first time in months,i couldnt believe my luck as my only find was a edward the confessor penny,im still trying to read these coins and i think this one is aelfwine on thetford,can anybody confirm this for me? perhaps ye old collector maybe able to help yet again? look forward to any replies,thanks michael

thankyou ye old collector you are a clever clogs!!! thanks a lot for putting the legend in your reply,i can see it clearly now you have shown me, many thanks yet again,until next time kind regards michael

Hi guys,ive not been on here for a while but hope your all well, i thought i would show you what has come up recently ( not found by me ) the photo isnt brilliant but it looks to me to be edward I but which type im not sure and im hoping the professionals on here maybe able to help,hopefully you will be able to see them,thanks

hi frank,thanks for taking the time to email that link and the info to(very interesting), i cant remember where i got this one from as ive found so many in the past,i would hazzard a guess and say from the thames as ive had most of mine from there,i will put some of my others on here soon.many thanks again

hi there,perhaps someone out there can give me any infomation on this jetton ive had in my collection for a long time,i believe its edward I but what is unusual is thats its groat size and not the usual penny size

any infomation much appreciated

thanks michael

happy new year to you all

Hi Clive,yep i agree also,the penny is fab!!! and the history lesson too, perhaps you can do your next lesson on the commemoritive penny of saint edmund?? im a little confused as to why the vikings made pennies to commemorate him even though they murdered him? or do i have the wrong end of the stick? regards again

Hi again guys, this is another coin i found,i think the moneyer and mint is " LEOFSTAN on SHREWBURY" if anyone knows better please let me know,regards michael

Hi guys just thought i would show you this cut half i found a few years ago,i hope you can view the photo,can anyone guess the mint?? regards michael

hi again ye old collector,thanks for your help yet again, many thanks michael
