Description: | An extremely worn and incomplete Medieval silver short cross penny, probably of John to Henry III, dating from c. AD 1204-c. 1236. Probably Wren Class 5a-7b, due to possible moneyer (cf. Wren, p. 32). Moneyer probably TOMAS; mint uncertain, possibly of Canterbury, Carlisle, Lincoln, Rhuddlan, or York. Too little remains of the coin to fully identify it; however, the possibility that the moneyer is Tomas assists in the suggestion of Classes above. Although the coin has been broken in little more than half, it is clear that this is due to damage from being bent rather then being purposefully clipped or broken for a cut halfpenny.
