Description: | Silver? Medieval coin, 14mm in diameter. Obverse shows crowned figure facing forward with prominant 'bobbed' hair. The figure appears to be dressed in a dotted garment, perhaps suggesting armour or ermine? The portrait is in a beaded border and there are small sections of an inscription which are too faded to read. The reverse is quartered with solid lines inside a beaded border, each quarter containing three joined pellets. In the centre, above the lines, is a motif made up of four loops? agin some of the inscription is present but is too worn to read. It has been suggested it is a coin of Richard III, but is too worn to be certain. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Wendy Scott | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
