I have examined three coins reported found in the Great Dunmow area, Essex. The coins are all gold quarter-nobles of King Edward III and will therefore be over 23 carats fine, or about 96% good gold. The quarter-noble was the smallest of the three gold denominations of later medieval English currency, worth 1s.8d. (20-pence), so three were worth 60-pence, or five shillings. Their details are as follows: Edward III Third Coinage, second issue (1346-51) Quarter-noble North 1112 2.10g (JL) Quarter-noble North 1112 …

Two gold nobles of late medieval England and will be of very high gold fineness - over 23 carats. Their details are as follows: Henry VI Noble Annulet issue (1422-late 1420s) London 6.99g Noble Annulet issue (1422-late 1420s) London 6.99g The noble was the highest denomination between 1344 and 1460, being worth 6s.8d., or 80 pennies (a third of a pound), so in terms of face value these three coins were worth 13s.4d. or one mark in the other medieval unit of account, which was equivalent to something like £300 in purchasing power in modern terms.

A small coin hoard of six coins, of Late Post Medieval dating (AD 1680s onwards). Five of the coins are from the issues of Charles II, four guineas, which will be of the 22 carat 'crown gold' standard and one shilling, which will be of the sterling standard, over 90% fine metal. These coins would have been in currency together in the later 17th or early 18th century and the absence of any coins of the later Stuarts or early Hanoverians makes it seem unlikely that it is a group from much later than around 1690. The most recent coin of this group is, a little oddly, the most worn …
