An probable Medieval to Post Medieval coin, encrusted and mostly illegible. The coin is groat/sixpence size for English coinage, but it may be a foreign issue. The obverse is totally illegible, the reverse has a long cross reaching the edge of the coin with a motif in each angle which may be crowns, lions or lis (or a mix of these), with inscription in one line. Given the coin's size, an English issue would be expected to either show a shield or double row of inscription. The motifs combined with a long cross suggest it is most likely a Low Countries issue dating&nbs…
