Description: | A worn, broken and heavily clipped silver long cross penny. The clipping is unusual in that instead of the metal around the periphery being removed by shears it appears to have been punched, perhaps using an annular cutter. Apart from the small amount of missing edge it is perfectly round, concentric on the inner circle, and in places on the circumference shows slight signs of burring. Monarch and mint are unknown and the coin dates from circa AD 1461-1500.[Adrian Marsden identification: Silver penny, probably of uncertain later 15th century king, very heavily clipped, further details illegible, c.1461-1500]
