Re: Thursdays Hammered.

I'll take a hammered in any condition any day! Much better than my scrappys from yesterday.

Heck yah! i would much rather have Hammered than 3 pennies and a dime from the 80's like last weekend! Nice finds

You know Crusader or Silver will have an answer on that coin. Hammered is a great find, wheter you can ID it or not

Many thanks S.S. The phantom "face" that perhaps only l can see is on one of the small circles on the small cross side. Can anyone see??. John.

Now that could be a very nice cut half.
The clues are:
[RIC]ARD.O
So moneyer Ricard but missing the vital first letter of the mint which would have clitched it. However, all the styling to me excludes H3. My bets on Henry II, class 1c :headbang:
