Description: | A worn and bent silver Medieval long cross penny of Edward I-III (1272-1377 AD). Mint: Canterbury. A portion of the coin corresponding to the beginning of the obverse legend has been bent at a 90-degree angle. The obverse bears traces of a crowned bust facing and its legend is inscribed: EDWAR(R?) ANGL DNS hYB. Unfortunately not enough of the style of the legends, nor attributes of the obverse depiction remain for a full identification. Possibilities based upon mint and legend include: Edward I: Types 10ab and 10cf; Edward II: Type 11; and Edward III: Type 15d. Based upon the lettering style of the A and N in the obverse legend, it seems likely that this is a penny of Edward I, Class 10cf (1301-1310); however, because of the limitations noted above, this is a tentative identification only.
