    Hi all
    I was wondering am I making a mistake
    I was offered 30 GBP ($47) for these two coins on the left a Charles I half groat and the right I think a Edward I Penny (note the coin is in two pieces)
    I accepted the offer because I bought them for 10 GBP ($15)
    What would you value them at?

    Thanks

    that is not an edward i coin. the crown doesn't match, and there's a star in the obverse field. one thing i can say for sure is that your coin was minted in york at the archbishop's mint, not the royal mint in york.

    i can't say for sure, but i believe you have a henry v (1413-1422) coin.

    both coins are common, the one is broken in half, plus missing parts of the legend. if you sold them together for £30, you did fine.
