16th century silver coin pendant, a pierced & gilded three-halfpence of Elizabeth I A silver three-halfpence of Elizabeth I, initial mark ermine (1572-3) - this denomination carries a date on the reverse, but here it is illegible.

A single coin such as this would not normally be eligible for consideration as Treasure. However, this specimen has apparently been converted into an item of jewellery. It is pierced with a relatively large hole, a…

Object type: COIN WEIGHT
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
An unusual complete copper-alloy coin weight, roughly square in shape measuring 14mm by 13mm in size with a weight of 4g. On the obverse there is a facing bust of a crowned King with two circles/pellets by the neck. The legend reads POID DE ROI AVE; 'weight of the King Ave.' The reverse is blank. Barrie Cook of the British Museum has examined this coin weight and believes that it was for a groat of the 15 grain penny period; 1412-1464. It is probably for the commonest groat issue, the annulet issue from Calais, which dates it to between c1430-60.
