A copper alloy coin; probably a contemporary copy of a Roman nummus dating from AD 300 - 400. Originally thought to be a styca, closer inspection suggests that the visible part of the design is a crude forward facing figure, with a cross on the right, rather than the central cross and surrounding letters that would be expected on a styca. The coin is thicker than would be expected for an official issue. Length: 12.16mm Width: 10.28mm Thickness: 2.21mm Weight: 1.22g

Probably a Post Medieval Irish halfpenny of George II to George IV. It has been milled diagonally. Dates to between c1727 and c1830 AD. The diameter is about 4mm wider than usual for an Irish Half penny. Diameter 33mm, thickness 2mm, and weight 14.06g. The coin surface has been damaged and the inscriptions are illegible, but the crown over the harp and some of the scrolling is visible on the reverse. On the obverse there is the suggestion of a right facing bust. If this is the case, and not a trick of the eye, then the monarch would be George III (1760 to 1820 AD).
