Working on the presumption that the intersection of the cross is the centre of the coin then I measured from that point to the edge and I doubled...
OK. I hadn't considered that. I wasn't aware that the different denominations carried the same images. The (actual) diameter of the coin is around...
@> Paul. I thank-you for your help. By pointing me in the direction that you did I now believe that I have a piece of a 1721 2 Reales coin. (Do...
I have a piece of a coin and I am hoping that someone will recognize enough of it to help me identify it. Because I can make out the letters...
. . . . . . . . . and a few of my 'cut' silver pennies, (now 'half' pennies) . . . . King Henry III [ATTACH] King Henry III [ATTACH] King John...
I think that you are right, Ardatiron. Now if you were talking about English silver 'Pennies' circa Henry III that have a 'voided' cross on them...

What wonderful coins. I never knew that there was such diversity in these coins. Snakes, hounds, eagles, torches. I wouldn't have known....
O.K. I did not know that. Thank-you.
O.K. That's good. I am going to live, but just to be sure, I think I will try Chris' 'treatment'.
Using your ref. (I like it, too), [ATTACH] I agree with the 'reclining' crescent (as a 'stop'). I think that you are right ( a lot closer than I...
@>THCoins - I thank-you for your input. Is that possibly a 'G' after the 'X'? I have rotated the photograph to put the Crown to the top, to see if...
Pretty much as I figured, but I had to ask. Thank-you. (Now where did I put that Alexandrian drachm?)
