Description: | Silver penny of either King John or Henry III minted in London by the moneyer Abel between 1204 - 1222. The coin fits best into Class Vc 1204-1209 which is within the reign of King John. The obverse of the coin has been over-struck by a copy of the reverse; the most likely cause for this is that it is a result of a blunder in the mint and that this coin has stuck to the upper face of the die and then been re-struck against another blank die causing a mirrored version to be created and the impression of the coin having two reverse faces. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Reavill, Peter - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
