A 'PAXS' or 'Peace' penny and measuring just under 2cm in diameter or about 3/4 of an inch. scotto's Henry III silver penny London Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art Posted September 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Very hard choice based on the appearance of the two coins. Since I don't know much about these coins and their significance the explanation with the Peace penny threw my vote that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
constanius Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 Beautiful Henry III, what a shame, like Harold Goodwinson he came up against William the conqueror. That bloody Norman upstart wins again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
