Scottish coin

Took some more pics early this morning. Light still not good enough though. May clean the coin tonight. The 24 spikes on the rowels in the quarters, make it a Berwick mint coin.

Ahab8,
Thanks for the kind comment.
Whenever an article is found from the land of my fellow clansmen, especially one so ancient as this coin, my level of interest peaks. Congrats again to Robert and his finds.
