Description: | Incomplete silver penny of Edward I, Class 3 (1280-1). Modified to form a brooch. Diameter 20mm, weight 0.91g. The top part of the coin is broken and missing. Obverse: trifoliate crowned bust facing to the front with wedged drapery. The bust is enclosed by a circle of pellets. Reverse: solid long cross pattee extends to the edge of the coin with a group of three pellets in each of the angles. London mint. The legend is perforated with three roughly circular holes that are about 1mm in diameter. A fourth and similar incomplete hole is at the edge of the coin. The holes are for rivets that would have held a hinged pin and catch-plate. The reverse side of the brooch was the front as this side is gilded.
