    A trade brought my way a few coins completely unfamiliar to me. This halfcrown of Charles I has several problems including clipping and there seems to be a diebreak obscuring part of the mintmark that is only half on flan anyway. Can anyone make out what it was? That area is shown enlarged in the inset at the top. Is there anything else of note that does show on this coin?

    i could be wrong, but my best guess is it's s.2775 with an anchor mintmark.
