Seek and ye shall find !

[robfinds]

Well not long since I was moaning about the lack of good portrait coins of Elizabeth 1 I have found over the years. Then the other week I found a nice penny with a good portrait of Elizabeth. And yesterday from the same site came this, also a penny, it's a 2nd issue penny 1560-1. Perhaps I should next moan about the complete lack of gold torcs over the years !.

Spooky, and yet strangely wonderful. The same thing has happened to just about everyone at some point.


That is quite a Fine coin.



Congratulations,

Thanks it is in good condition, but far from rare. Pennies were the most common coins minted during Elizabeths long reign. Wonder what could have been bought with it ?.

Hi Robert,

You are on a roll with QE1 hammered coins. Looks like you are destined to found an Elizabeth Tudor fan club!
