Description: | A very worn and badly struck Medieval silver coin, probably a long cross penny. The obverse shows a very worn off-centre struck crowned head with no remains of a legend. The crown looks to have four circles above the band but this appearance may be due to the worn interlinking curvature of the fleur ornaments. Nonetheless, it is suggestive of a later post-14th century crown type. The reverse shows a long cross with three pellets in each quarter but no trace of the legend remains. The finder has suggested the coin could be either Richard III or Henry VII.
