A probable modern fake of a penny of Edward the Confessor, Winchester mint. The coin appears to be imitating a hammer cross type (AD 1059-1062) although there is no annulet in the quarters of the cross as is usual for this series. The obverse inscription reads 'EADHARRD REX', crowned bust with sceptre right. The reverse reads 'ELFPINNE ON PINC'. The coin is of a very tinny white metal, and is of the correct weight and diameter however there is little wear and no tarnishing and the metal does not look or feel right for silver of this period.

A modern copy of a Medieval coin. This imitation is copying coins of Edward I (AD 1272 - 1307) but the obverse and reverse appear to be from different coins. The obverse is Class 4c-e (nick in crown, egg waisted S, open E, comma shaped apostrophies, unbarred A) and the reverse is Class 1-3g (Composite S, barred A), London mint. This is not a known mule. The coin can be recognised as a modern imitatoin because it is made from three layers of metal which can be seen on the edge of the coin. It is 19.1mm diameter, 1.4mm thick and 2.76g.

The initial mark (cross with pellet centre) is not one known for Henry VIII and the inscriptions on both obverse and reverse contain inaccuracies- the end of obverse inscription reads [ ]RSh; the r…
