Silver penny of Alexander III of Scotland, voided long cross type, moneyer Walter of uncertain mint, weight 1.09g, 1250-80. Nick Holmes adds: This is a rather peculiar coin, I’m afraid, and even after playing around with the images on Photoshop to increase the contrast, I still can’t read much of the inscriptions. I can see why Martin wanted to pass on the query! Yes – the reverse does appear to read WA/LTE/RO ..., but unfortunately the mint name is quite illegible. The name Walter is found on coins of the mints of DUN, FRES, Glasgow, Kinghorn and Montrose, so this is no he…

Forgery, probably contemporary, of a silver hammered voided long cross penny of Henry III (1216-1272), with crude imitation of facing portrait on obverse and voided long cross with pellets on the reverse.
