Description: | A worn and damaged Medieval silver short cross cut halfpenny probably minted in the reign of Richard I (1189-1199 AD) or John (1199-1216 AD). The degree of wear on the coin is extensive but the hair detail infers it is class 4 or earlier in the short cross series. The reverse appears to read [...]EM ON suggesting the moneyer is WILLEM and the mint therefore Shrewsbury. Accordingly the coin is possibly class 4a North, English Hammered Coinage vol 1(1994) p220: No. 968. 1194-1200 AD.
