Description: | A Medieval silver voided long cross cut half-penny (AD 1247-1279) of Henry III, AD 1216-1272. Reverse legend reads [.../...]/CAN/TER, the 'A' and 'N' are ligated. Reverse shows a voided long cross with three pellets per quarter. Mint is Canterbury, moneyer unknown.Obverse legend reads [...]RICVS RE[...]. Obverse shows part of a forward facing crowned head. The legend does not start at the 12 o'clock position so a sceptre would probably have been present and this coin is likely to be a class 5 to 7 however there appears to be pellets in the hair curls which would exclude classes 6 to 7 leaving only class 5, not further defined. Die axis is approximately 11 o'clock. Weight is 0.61g, diameter is 17.6mm.
