Description: | A medieval silver coin: a penny of Henry II (1154-1189) of the Cross and crosslets (Tealby) type (1158-80). As is often the case, it is weakly struck on an irregular flan, the reverse being better than the obverse, which is almost completely illegible. The silver has darkened to almost black as a result of chemical action in the soil. It is 18mm in diameter and 0.8mm thick. It weighs 1.27gm. Reference: North, Vol. 1, Nos. 952-961.
