With the exception of its material, which feels light for a comparative thickness in silver and slightly waxy, all other elements of the coin appear legitimate. Indeed, some coins of Edward the Confessor on the PAS database are actually lighter than this example. However, this was a metal-detected discovery and produced a faint metallic signal in the ground.

Post medieval coin
France, Louis XVI (1774 - 93) double sol constitutional, c. 1791-3, date illegible
Coinage of the period between the king's overthrow and his eventual execution.
This appears to be a cast forgery in pewter or a similar alloy, the metals used in this issue vary considerably but are usually of bronze, often derived from melting down church bells.

Record ID: CORN-90E423
Object type: COIN
Broad period: MODERN
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Published
Aluminium copy of a Charles I sixpence, copying the silver shillings minted at Pontefract during 1648 and 1649, the so-called 'siege' pieces. Sixpences were never minted at Pontefract, but were at Scarborough in 1644-5 and Newark in 1646. However, these latter types are square or diamond-shaped in profile, not disc-shaped as in this case. This copy seems to have been stamped and then cut out as a disc, as it has an edge on the reverse that stands slightly proud of the surface of the coin but no edge on the obverse.
